Kurztext
Modern societies often claim to be democracies in order to enjoy greater legitimacy. Still, to understand the concept of democracy and how to justify it, the definition of it as self-determined is not sufficient. A complex understanding has to take into account ideas of rule of law as well as human rights. Sometimes these three concepts compete with each other – particularly in societies with a pluralistic approach to what "the good life" should be, such as societies which are made up of distinct cultural backgrounds.
This book presents a concept of democracy that encompasses at the same time the ideas of rule of law, human rights and self-determination. It contains the main lectures of the XXVI World Congress of Philosophy of Law and Social Philosophy, hosted by the Internationale Vereinigung für Rechts- und Sozialphilosophie at the Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (Brazil) in July 2013.

Herausgegeben von der Internationalen Vereinigung für Rechts- und Sozialphilosophie.
Das Archiv für Rechts- und Sozialphilosophie sieht seine Aufgabe in der philosophischen Grundlagenforschung der Rechtswissenschaft: Die Studien beleuchten und diskutieren die geistigen Grundlagen des Sozial- und Rechtslebens in ihren Verflechtungen und Auswirkungen. Alle Denkrichtungen der Gegenwart werden hierbei bedacht. Ein besonderer Wert wird dabei auf die Internationalität gelegt.
Die Zeitschrift wurde 1907 unter dem Namen Archiv für Rechts- und Wirtschaftsphilosophie gegründet, die erste Beiheft-Reihe erschien von 1908–1932.
1933 erfolgte die Umbenennung in Archiv für Rechts- und Sozialphilosophie. Auch die Beihefte liefen nun bis 1941 unter dem neuen Namen. Ab 1960 ging es mit einer Neuen Folge weiter. Deren erste vier Bände wurden im Luchterhand Verlag publiziert, mit Band 5 erfolgte der Wechsel zum Franz Steiner Verlag. Mittlerweile sind über 100 Beihefte erschienen, u.a. mit den Tagungsbänden der Internationalen Vereinigung für Rechts- und Sozialphilosophie.
