3 unusual facts about Benjamin Radcliff


Benjamin Radcliff

Benjamin Radcliff (born August 28, 1963) is an American political scientist and a professor at the University of Notre Dame.

In a 2001 article in the American Political Science Review he provided extensive econometric evidence in support of the contention that social democracy in general, and an expansive, universalistic welfare state in particular, contributed to greater levels of life satisfaction across the Western world.

This work culmuninated in a 2000 article in The Journal of Politics that sought to establish that the only democratic models to survive the challenges posed by social choice theory were in fact the radical interpretations of democracy known as participatory democracy or deliberative democracy.
