Sovereignty and Constitutional Democracy

doi:10.5771/9783845231235

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.
