Summary This work examines concept of sincerity in politics and international relations in order to discuss what we should expect of politicians, within what parameters should they work, and how their decisions and actions could be made consistent with morality.
Contents PART I: Publicity. Political deception: lowering the bar -- The role of public reason's principle of sincerity -- Speaking on morality's behalf: when one should be silent and why -- What can we learn about political corruption from Kant's conceptions of honesty, publicity and truthfulness?
PART II: Rhetoric. The political rhetoric of administrative ethics: Obama vs. the cynics -- A Kantian rhetoric of sincerity: politics, truth and truthfulness -- Making sense: the possibility of truthfulness in politics -- On doubt and otherness: deconstructing power and dissent.
PART III: Institutions. Political dissimulation à la Kant: two limits of the sincerity requirement -- Pretending peace: provisional political trust and sincerity in Kant and Améry -- Governing by trust: sincerity as a procedural fairness norm -- Truth-telling and right-speaking in European integration politics: from theory to practice and back.
