Zusammenfassung: | "We enter here upon a history of conversational traffic between the respective departments of philosophy and law in the old academy of liberalism, where lawyers hear much from philosophers, yes-and philosophers hear from lawyers, too, in what has fruitfully been a both-ways exchange. Our philosophical protagonist is John Rawls. This book comprises a study of the rise and workings, within the Rawlsian political-liberal philosophy, of the idea of a country's higher-legal constitution as a public platform for the justification of political coercion. A study of Rawls on constitutionalism can help us, I believe, in scoping out and managing a cluster of constitutional lawyers' debates-interminable ones, it seems, in the constitutional-democratic precincts of our times-that I will catalogue soon below. But conversely, I believe, those seeking the best and truest readings of Rawls might have something to learn from the controversies of the lawyers. My approach to Rawls has accordingly been that of a critically leavened (while no doubt broadly sympathetic) exegesis, while with the legal-discursive materials I take more of a diagnostic turn. My hope is that a treatment of these two discourses in relation to each other will prove an aid to both political-philosophical and legal-practical reflection"-- |

Our philosophical protagonist is John Rawls. This book comprises a study of the rise and workings, within the Rawlsian political-liberal philosophy, of the idea of a country's higher-legal constitution as a public platform for the justification of political coercion. A study of Rawls on constitutionalism can help us, I believe, in scoping out and managing a cluster of constitutional lawyers' debates-interminable ones, it seems, in the constitutional-democratic precincts of our times-that I will catalogue soon below. But conversely, I believe, those seeking the best and truest readings of Rawls might have something to learn from the controversies of the lawyers. My approach to Rawls has accordingly been that of a critically leavened (while no doubt broadly sympathetic) exegesis, while with the legal-discursive materials I take more of a diagnostic turn. My hope is that a treatment of these two discourses in relation to each other will prove an aid to both political-philosophical and legal-practical reflection"--</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="600" ind1="1" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Rawls, John</subfield><subfield code="d">1921-2002</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)118598678</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="9">rswk-swf</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1="0" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Liberalismus</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4035582-2</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="9">rswk-swf</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1="0" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Rechtsphilosophie</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4048821-4</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="9">rswk-swf</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1="0" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Verfassungstheorie</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4127485-4</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="9">rswk-swf</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Constitutional law / Philosophy</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Constitutional law / Political aspects</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Liberalism / Political aspects</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Legitimacy of governments</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="1"><subfield code="a">Rawls, John / 1921-2002</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="1"><subfield code="a">Rawls, John / 1921-2002</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Constitutional law / Philosophy</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Constitutional law / Political aspects</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Legitimacy of governments</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="689" ind1="0" ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Verfassungstheorie</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4127485-4</subfield><subfield code="D">s</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="689" ind1="0" ind2="1"><subfield code="a">Liberalismus</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4035582-2</subfield><subfield code="D">s</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="689" ind1="0" ind2=" "><subfield code="5">DE-604</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="689" ind1="1" ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Rawls, John</subfield><subfield code="d">1921-2002</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)118598678</subfield><subfield code="D">p</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="689" ind1="1" ind2="1"><subfield code="a">Liberalismus</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4035582-2</subfield><subfield code="D">s</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="689" ind1="1" ind2="2"><subfield code="a">Rechtsphilosophie</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4048821-4</subfield><subfield code="D">s</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="689" ind1="1" ind2=" "><subfield code="5">DE-604</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1="0" ind2="8"><subfield code="i">Erscheint auch als</subfield><subfield code="n">Online-Ausgabe</subfield><subfield code="z">978-0-19-765585-6</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="856" ind1="4" ind2="2"><subfield code="m">Digitalisierung BSB München - ADAM Catalogue Enrichment</subfield><subfield code="q">application/pdf</subfield><subfield code="u">http://bvbr.bib-bvb.de:8991/F?func=service&doc_library=BVB01&local_base=BVB01&doc_number=033968340&sequence=000001&line_number=0001&func_code=DB_RECORDS&service_type=MEDIA</subfield><subfield code="3">Inhaltsverzeichnis</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="940" ind1="1" ind2=" "><subfield code="q">BSB_NED_20230123</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="999" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">oai:aleph.bib-bvb.de:BVB01-033968340</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="942" ind1="1" ind2="1"><subfield code="c">001.09</subfield><subfield code="e">22/bsb</subfield><subfield code="f">0904</subfield><subfield code="g">73</subfield></datafield></record></collection> |
