Democratic Law

ISBN: 9780190084486 出版年：2021 页码：249 Shiffrin, Seana Valentine Oxford University Press

The book defends the intimate connection between democracy and law by focusing on how democracy permits us to be co-authors of our common community through the use of law. It argues that democratically forged laws are articulate public commitments we make to one another and they are uniquely capable of conveying our mutual respect for one another. For this reason, democratic law is morally imperative and morally inspirational.
