Stephen Turner is Graduate Research Professor and Chair, Department of Philosophy, University of
South Florida, and Director of the Center for Social and Political Thought. His recent books include
Liberal Democracy 3.0: Civil Society in an Age of Experts (2003) and Brains/Practices/Relativism: Social
Theory after Cognitive Science (2002). He was editor of The Cambridge Companion to Weber (2000),
and has written extensively on Weber’s political thought. His other books include The Social Theory of
Practices: Tradition, Tacit Knowledge, and Presuppositions (1994). One of his thematic concerns has
been the problem of knowledge and power, and most recently he has been considering the failure of
liberalism to acknowledge the problems for ‘government by discussion’ produced by claims to expertise,
and the parallel failure of the Left to resolve its ambivalence toward its past embrace of the ideal of rule
by experts (as the ‘administration of things’), and the inadequacy of its imagined alternatives.
