Democracy and the Limits of Self-Government
ISBN: 9780521140119 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The political institutions under which we live today evolved from a revolutionary idea that shook the world in the second part of the eighteenth century: that a people should govern itself. Yet if we judge contemporary democracies by the ideals of self-government, equality, and liberty, we find that democracy is not what it was dreamt to be. This book addresses central issues in democratic theory by analyzing the sources of widespread dissatisfaction with democracies around the world. With attention throughout to historical and cross-national variations, the focus is on the generic limits of...

Democracy and the Rule of Law
ISBN: 9780521825597 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 334 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. An international group of specialists from the fields of law, politics, economics, and philosophy address the question of why governments act or do not act according to laws. The authors interpret the rule of law as a strategic choice of actors with powerful interests, rather than as an exogenous constraint on politicians. The rule of law emerges when no group is strong enough to dominate the others, and political actors seek to resolve their conflicts by recourse to law. Law is thus deeply rooted in politics.
