Description

Humans are justificatory beings who offer, demand and require justifications for the rules and institutions that structure society. This groundbreaking collection presents Rainer Forst's first English translation of Normativitat und Macht (originally published by Suhrkamp in 2015), offering a fresh approach to critical theory that transcends conventional ideal and realist frameworks. Each essay examines the fundamental principles underlying our normative thinking, exploring how justification narratives have developed over time to form a dynamic and tension-laden normative order. Forst's analysis reveals the intricate relationship between normativity and power, demonstrating how social orders of justification both reflect and shape the institutions we inhabit. Published by Oxford University Press, this work provides essential insights for scholars and students of law, philosophy, political theory and critical social analysis seeking to understand the normative foundations of contemporary society.
