Abstract

This article aims to reconsider some recent interpretations of the debate on the role of public opinion in democracies that opposed John Dewey and Walter Lippmann throughout the 1920s. To this end, this article examines Dewey and Lippmann’s involvement in the “outlawry of war” debate during the same era. The analysis of this other debate sheds a new light on the political, philosophical, and epistemological differences that are described by James Carey, although minimized by a growing body of revisionist historiography.
