The Just State

En savoir plus sur le livre

A comprehensive theory of self-government is presented, addressing the organization of political institutions and legitimizing democracy against contemporary challenges. Richard Dien Winfield evaluates normative political theory, exploring the transformations necessary for political emancipation. He discusses the functions of political parties, the balance between participatory and representative democracy, and the implications of international relations on political freedom. This work aims to reclaim the relevance of normative theory for law students, politicians, and engaged citizens seeking a just constitutional framework.
