The Semi-Future Democracy: A Liberal Theory of the Long-Term View
Explores whether liberal democracies can govern legitimately for the long term Presents an original contribution built on a prize-winning article Uniquely connects intergenerational justice studies with normative (i.e., related to legitimacy issues) democratic theory Introduces a novel time perception that promotes the long term without falling into the legitimacy traps usually faced by non-overlapping future proposals of democratic inclusion Pro…
Machiavelli's Discourses on Livy: New Readings
Machiavelli is chiefly known for The Prince, but his main considerations on politics are found in his later work Discourses on Livy. Despite this book's historical and theoretical importance, its complexity, length and style have often discouraged new readers and interpreters of Machiavelli from engaging with it. For this reason, the Discourses has not been given the attention it deserves. This volume of newly commissioned essays by some of the w…
The Political Conception of Human Rights and Its Rule(s) of Recognition
The political conception makes sense of human rights strictly in light of their role in international human rights practice, more specifically by describing how they justify interventions against states that engage in or fail to prevent human rights violations. This conception is, therefore, normative and fact-dependent. Beyond this, it does not seem to have much to say about the actual nature of international human rights practice. The argument …
Social evolution as moral truth tracking in natural law
Morality can be adaptive or maladaptive. From this fact come polarizing disputes on the meta-ethical status of moral adaptation. The realist tracking account of morality claims that it is possible to track objective moral truths and that these truths correspond to moral rules that are adaptive. In contrast, evolutionary anti-realism rejects the existence of moral objectivity and thus asserts that adaptive moral rules cannot represent objective mo…

The British Academy Brian Barry Prize Essay: Representing the Future: The Interests of Future Persons in Representative Democracy
As a reaction against contemporary democracy's inherent short-sightedness in solving problems that are likely to affect distant future generations, there has been a recent increase in proposals for different kinds of democratic representation of future persons. This article shows that even though there can be no such thing as political representation of future persons, the relevant affected interests of the as-yet unborn can still be taken into c…
The Idea of the Social Contract in the History of 'Agreementism
One of the recurrent motifs in political thought is the idea of the social contract, according to which a society, a government, or moral principles depend for their existence on agreements between voluntary agents. This association between the social contract and "agreementism" implies that there is nothing about the terminology of contracts that distinguishes it from that of other types of agreements constitutive of normativity. This essay test…
Challenges to Democratic Participation: Antipolitics, Deliberative Democracy, and Pluralism
This book gathers a series of studies by scholars who have dedicated these last few years to research in the field of participatory democracy. Their purpose is precisely to engage in a theoretical discussion about the value of participatory democracy in the 21st century. Part I deals with the challenge of antipolitics. This is one of the greatest challenges faced by contemporary democratic theory: How can it be possible to take into account in po…
Aquinas’s lex iniusta non est lex: A Test of Legal Validity
Legal positivism understands natural law as performing classifying connections between morality and law as tests of legal validity: if a norm with some pretence to legality contradicts a moral good, it cannot be called a legal norm. The new natural law school, however, claims that natural law develops qualifying connections between morality and law: tests of legal validity are performed by non-moral criteria such as due enactment or efficacy, and…
A autonomia do direito como imanência interdisciplinar: Reflexões a partir da querela entre Gustav Hugo e Hegel
Na querela entre os membros da Escola Histórica do Direito (Hugo e Savigny) e Hegel acerca de quem tem o título legítimo para pensar o direito, para os primeiros a Filosofia do Direito é uma inerência à própria ciência sistemática do direito, enquanto para o segundo o conceito de direito passa inevitavelmente por uma dialética transsistemática (o sistema jurídico opera como infrassistema de filosofia). Existiria assim como que uma distinção entre…
