Title: "The Civic Value of Solitude"

 

Abstract: “This is what democracy looks like” is typically the caption to a photo of engaged citizens publicly assembled to express a common political sentiment. Democracy indeed needs an active citizenry.  However, democracy also needs citizens to be reflective.  The trouble is that common modes of collective democratic action can dismantle our reflective capacities.  It turns out that there are certain civic virtues that can be cultivated and exercised only in solitude.
