This is a reminder for:

Title: John Hadley, UWS
The epistemology of direct action advocacy in democratic theory

The focus of this paper is the epistemic status of direct action in  
deliberative democracy theory. Do the norms of epistemic realism, public  
reason, and recent Peircean conceptions of deliberation rule out the use of  
direct action as a constructive form of political campaigning? In what  
sense may direct action be useful for helping deliberators to arrive at the  
truth or reach a satisfying conclusion?  I address these questions with  
reference to recent debate over direct action animal rights advocacy and  
recent social science research into animal rights as a functional religion.
