SynopsisThis book fills the void between what is and isn't known about Hans Kelsen's political philosophy, and the ways that philosophy has and will continue to shape political debates inherent to democracy in the future. For the first time in English, this classic book - with an introduction by political theorist Nadia Urbinati - provides an overview of Kelsen's career and his contributions to 20th century political thought., Hans Kelsen is widely recognized as one of the most important legal theorists of the 20th century. Surprisingly, however, his political writings are not nearly as widely known as his legal theory, especially in the English-speaking world. This book fills the void between what is and isn't known about Hans Kelsen's political philosophy, and the ways that philosophy has and will continue to shape political debates inherent to democracy in the future. For the first time in English, this classic book - with an introduction by political theorist Nadia Urbinati - provides an overview of Kelsen's career and his contributions to 20th century political thought., Hans Kelsen is widely recognized as one of the most important legal theorists of the twentieth century. Surprisingly, however, his political writings are not nearly as widely known as his legal theory, especially in the English-speaking world. Now, thanks to the work of editors Nadia Urbinati and Carlo Invernizzi Accetti and translator Brian Graf, the void between what is and isn't known about Hans Kelsen's political philosophy-and the ways that philosophy has shaped and will continue to shape political debates inherent to democracy-is explored with the same vigor and frankness that marked the legendÆs work. Translated from KelsenÆs native tongue, and for the first time in English, this indispensable classic provides a new perspective and adds to the discussion of KelsenÆs career and his myriad contributions to twentieth-century political thought. Hans Kelsen remains a controversial and celebrated international figure and mind, and The Essence of Value and Democracy is a groundbreaking example of the extent of his philosophical, political, legal, and intellectual legacy.
