Summary

Ist Souveränität weiterhin eine brauchbare Kategorie für liberale Demokratien? Obwohl aktuell diskutiert wird, die Souveränität aufzugeben, argumentiert der Band, dass solche Bestrebungen fehlgeleitet sind. Durch eine Rekonstruktion des Souveränitäts-Diskurses in Politik- und Rechtstheorie wird gezeigt, dass wir zu einer demokratischen Vorstellung von Souveränität gelangen können.
