Abstract: This paper builds upon John Dewey's understanding of democratic community and argues that it is undergirded by the conception of sympathy. The concept of sympathy is integral in understanding what Dewey meant by democracy as a form of ethical association, a consideration relevant in contemporary American society due to the growing polarization in American politics and life. Dewey understood that sympathy involves an understanding of our own limitations, a willingness to listen even if we disagree, and an approach to life with humility and respect for the other. I briefly explore sympathy through the primary works of Dewey, The Early Works, The Middle Works, and The Later Works, where he addresses the concept of sympathy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
