Zusammenfassung: | Should we try to live in the present? Such is the imperative of modernity, Jed Rubenfeld writes in this important and original work of political theory. Since Jefferson proclaimed that 'the earth belongs to the living', since Freud announced that mental health requires people to 'get free of their past', since Nietzsche declared that the happy man is the man who 'leaps into the moment', modernity has directed its inhabitants to live in the present, as if there alone could they find happiness, authenticity, and above all freedom. But this imperative, Rubenfeld argues, rests on a profoundly inadequate, deforming picture of the relationship between freedom and time. Instead, Rubenfeld suggests, human freedom, indeed human being itself, necessarily extends into both past and future; self-government consists of giving our lives meaning and purpose over time. From this conception of self-government, Rubenfeld derives a new theory of constitutional law's place in democracy. Democracy, he writes, is not a matter of governance by the present 'will of the people'; it is a matter of a nation's laying down and living up to enduring political and legal commitments. Constitutionalism is not counter to democracy, as many believe, or a pre-condition of democracy; it is or should be democracy itself over time. On this basis, Rubenfeld offers a new understanding of constitutional interpretation and of the fundamental right of privacy. |

Democracy, he writes, is not a matter of governance by the present 'will of the people'; it is a matter of a nation's laying down and living up to enduring political and legal commitments. Constitutionalism is not counter to democracy, as many believe, or a pre-condition of democracy; it is or should be democracy itself over time. On this basis, Rubenfeld offers a new understanding of constitutional interpretation and of the fundamental right of privacy.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Liberty.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85076480</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Time.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85135395</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Democracy.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85036647</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Constitutional history</subfield><subfield code="z">United States.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85139984</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="2"><subfield code="a">Freedom</subfield><subfield code="0">https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D005610</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="2"><subfield code="a">Time</subfield><subfield code="0">https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D013995</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="2"><subfield code="a">Democracy</subfield><subfield code="0">https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D003709</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Liberté.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Temps.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Démocratie.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">États-Unis</subfield><subfield code="x">Histoire constitutionnelle.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Histoire constitutionnelle</subfield><subfield code="z">États-Unis.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">freedom.</subfield><subfield code="2">aat</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">time.</subfield><subfield code="2">aat</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">democracy.</subfield><subfield code="2">aat</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">PHILOSOPHY</subfield><subfield code="x">Political.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Constitutional history</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Democracy</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Liberty</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Time</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">United States</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PBJtxgQXMWqmjMjjwXRHgrq</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1="1" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Vrijheid.</subfield><subfield code="2">gtt</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1="1" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Constitutionalisme.</subfield><subfield code="2">gtt</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1="1" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Zelfbeschikkingsrecht.</subfield><subfield code="2">gtt</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="758" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="i">has work:</subfield><subfield code="a">Freedom and time (Text)</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PCGcgPkVkcY6mCq6Fddgf9C</subfield><subfield code="4">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/ontology/hasWork</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1="0" ind2="8"><subfield code="i">Print version:</subfield><subfield code="a">Rubenfeld, Jed, 1959-</subfield><subfield code="t">Freedom and time.</subfield><subfield code="d">New Haven : Yale University Press, ©2001</subfield><subfield code="w">(DLC) 00044914</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="856" ind1="4" ind2="0"><subfield code="l">FWS01</subfield><subfield code="p">ZDB-4-EBA</subfield><subfield code="q">FWS_PDA_EBA</subfield><subfield code="u">https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=187876</subfield><subfield code="3">Volltext</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="936" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">BATCHLOAD</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">EBL -

New Haven : Yale University Press, ©2001. 1 online resource (266 pages) text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier data file Includes bibliographical references and index. pt. 1. Living in the present -- pt. 2. Being over time -- pt. 3. Constitutionalism as democracy. Print version record. Should we try to live in the present? Such is the imperative of modernity, Jed Rubenfeld writes in this important and original work of political theory. Since Jefferson proclaimed that 'the earth belongs to the living', since Freud announced that mental health requires people to 'get free of their past', since Nietzsche declared that the happy man is the man who 'leaps into the moment', modernity has directed its inhabitants to live in the present, as if there alone could they find happiness, authenticity, and above all freedom. But this imperative, Rubenfeld argues, rests on a profoundly inadequate, deforming picture of the relationship between freedom and time. Instead, Rubenfeld suggests, human freedom, indeed human being itself, necessarily extends into both past and future; self-government consists of giving our lives meaning and purpose over time. From this conception of self-government, Rubenfeld derives a new theory of constitutional law's place in democracy. Democracy, he writes, is not a matter of governance by the present 'will of the people'; it is a matter of a nation's laying down and living up to enduring political and legal commitments. Constitutionalism is not counter to democracy, as many believe, or a pre-condition of democracy; it is or should be democracy itself over time. On this basis, Rubenfeld offers a new understanding of constitutional interpretation and of the fundamental right of privacy.
