Investigation is therefore steered towards current debates on processes of Europeanisation and the issue of \u003ci\u003eself-constitutionalisation \u003c\/i\u003eof a democratic polity. This turns out to be a complex concept referring to the threefold constitutionalisation: legal, institutional and horizontal, and hence to processes of evolutionary constitution making as well as institutional and societal constitutionalisation. Developing democratic legitimation in post-conventional terms rests on the presumption of increasing the processes of incrementally rationalising lifeworlds and unveils the role of the \u003ci\u003epractical power of judgement \u003c\/i\u003etransferred from the concept of a (monological) subject to the (dialogical-discursive) public spheres.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eContents: Democratic legitimation – Processes of Europeanisation – CJEU – Self-reflexive polity – Self-constitutionalisation – Constitutional patriotism – Public sphere – Normativity, values and norms – Ronald Dworkin – Neil MacCormick – Jürgen Habermas – Contractarianism – Counterfactual yardstick – Political morality – Deontology.","brand":"Peter Lang AG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51044285677911,"sku":"9783631654880","price":59.31,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9783631654880.jpg?v=1750961141","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/the-counterfactual-yardstick-normativity-self-constitutionalisation-and-the-public-sphere-9783631654880","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
