Research on federalism is rarely concerned with its philosophical
foundations. However, arguments on why and how best to organise a
plurality of states in a multilevel political order have first been
discussed by philosophers and continue to inspire contemporary
reasoning on international and supranational relations not only in
political philosophy. This book offers a unique overview of the
philosophical foundations of federalism from both a historical and
a systematic perspective. The analyses proposed by renowned
scholars from the US and from several European countries cover
classic writers such as Hobbes and the authors of the Federalist
Papers, Kant and Rawls, and range from anthropological
justifications of federal orders to contemporary problems of EU
constitutionalism, the principle of subsidiarity and the
jurisdiction of the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR). The book
is of relevance to anyone interested in philosophical
justifications of federalism.
