"Democratic Society and Human Needs is an assessment of liberal, rights-based social morality from the perspective of an alternative, needs-based system. For Jeff Noonan, a democratic society is one in which human beings collectively control necessary life-resources, using them to promote the essential human value of free capability realization. His critique of globalization and liberal capitalism vindicates radical social and economic democratization and provides an essential step towards understanding the vast discrepancies between rich and poor within and between democratic countries."--BOOK JACKET.
