Political Liberalism

by John Rawls ...

The Contract and Domination

by Carole Pateman, Charles Mills ...

Since the publication of John Rawls's A Theory of Justice, contract theory has once again become central to the Western political tradition. But gender justice is neglected and racial justice almost completely ignored.Carole Pateman and ... Read more

by Conrado Hübner Mendes ...

Series series Oxford Constitutional Theory
Contemporary democracies have granted an expansive amount of power to unelected judges that sit in constitutional or supreme courts.
