Traditionally, legitimacy has been associated exclusively with
states. But are states actually legitimate? And in light of the
legalization of international norms why should discussions of
legitimacy focus only on the nation-state? The essays in this
collection examine the nature of legitimacy, the legitimacy of the
state, and the legitimacy of supranational institutions. The
collection begins by asking: What sort of problem is legitimacy?
Part I considers competing theories, in particular the work of John
Rawls. Part II looks at the legitimacy of state apparatus, its
institutions, officials, and the rule of law, and the future of
state sovereignty. Part III expands the scope of legitimacy beyond
the state to supranational institutions and international law.
Written by theorists of considerable standing, the essays in this
volume will be of interest to students and scholars of law,
politics, and philosophy looking for ways of approaching the
problem of how extra-territorial affairs affect a state's written
and unwritten agreements with its citizens in a world where laws
and norms with legal effect are increasingly made beyond the state.
