'''Neorepublicanism'''<!--boldface per WP:R#PLA--> is the effort by current scholars to draw on a classical republican tradition in the development of an attractive public philosophy intended for contemporary purposes.<ref>Frank Lovett and Philip Pettit. "Neorepublicanism: a normative and institutional research program." ''Political Science'' 12.1 (2009): 11ff. ([http://www.annualreviews.org/eprint/DkZDjE3ZCC8aiDeVBEDe/full/ online]).</ref> Neorepublicanism emerges as an alternative postsocialist critique of market society from the left.<ref>Gerald F. Gaus, "Backwards into the future: Neorepublicanism as a postsocialist critique of market society." ''Social Philosophy and Policy'' 20/1 (2003): 59–91.</ref>

Prominent theorists in this movement are [[Philip Pettit]] and [[Cass Sunstein]], who have each written several works defining republicanism and how it differs from liberalism. [[Michael Sandel]], a late convert to republicanism from [[communitarianism]], advocates replacing or supplementing liberalism with republicanism, as outlined in his ''Democracy's Discontent: America in Search of a Public Philosophy''.

Contemporary work from a neorepublican include jurist [[K. Sabeel Rahman]]'s book ''Democracy Against Domination'', which seeks to create a neorepublican framework for [[economic regulation]] grounded in the thought of [[Louis Brandeis]] and [[John Dewey]] and [[popular sovereignty|popular control]], in contrast to both [[New Deal]]-style [[managerialism]] and [[neoliberal]] [[deregulation]].<ref>{{cite book |last1=Rahman |first1=K.
