Political philosophy professor Charles Blattberg argues that discussion of human rights, being abstract, demotivates people from upholding the values that rights are meant to affirm.

* The political philosopher Charles Blattberg has advanced a distinction between negotiation and conversation and criticized those methods of conflict-resolution which give too much weight to the former.

The philosopher Charles Blattberg, who has defined politics as " responding to conflict with dialogue ," offers an account which distinguishes political philosophies from political ideologies.

Charles Blattberg has offered an account which distinguishes between four different contemporary political philosophies: neutralism, postmodernism, pluralism, and patriotism.

The Canadian political thinker Charles Blattberg has argued that such events ought to be seen as part of a process in which Canadians advanced a " border " as distinct from a " frontier " – from east to west.

According to Blattberg, a border assumes a significantly sharper contrast between the civilized and the uncivilized since, unlike a frontier process, the civilizing force is not supposed to be shaped by that which it is civilizing.

Blattberg criticizes both the frontier and border " civilizing " processes.

Blattberg has also criticised Berlin for taking politics " too seriously.

The political philosopher Charles Blattberg has criticized deliberative democracy on four grounds: ( i ) the rules for deliberation that deliberative theorists affirm interfere with, rather than facilitate, good practical reasoning ; ( ii ) deliberative democracy is ideologically biased in favor of liberalism as well as republican over parliamentary democratic systems ; ( iii ) deliberative democrats assert a too-sharp division between just and rational deliberation on the one hand and self-interested and coercive bargaining or negotiation on the other ; and ( iv ) deliberative democrats encourage an adversarial relationship between state and society, one that undermines solidarity between citizens.

Note, however, that political philosophers such as Charles Blattberg have argued that negotiation can at best compromise rather than realise the common good.

Doing the latter is said to require engaging in " conversation " instead, room for which is made within what Blattberg calls a patriotic, as distinct from pluralist, politics.

* Charles Blattberg has written two books defending an approach to politics that emphasizes conversation, in contrast to negotiation, as the preferred means of resolving conflict.
