Far-Right Newspeak and the Future of Liberal Democracy
This book is the first systematic, multicountry exploration of far-right Newspeak. The contributors analyze the ways in which contemporary far-right politicians, intellectuals, and pundits use and abuse traditional liberal concepts and ideas to justify positions that threaten democratic institutions and liberal principles. They explore cases of both far-right and right-wing thought in eastern and western Europe, the United States, and Canada. Subjects include well-known figures, such as Marine Le Pen, Tucker Carlson, Peter Thiel, Nick Griffin, Thierry Baudet, Jordan Peterson, Russell Brand, and Viktor Orbán, and lesser-known names, such as the Czech politician Tomio Okamura and the Internet...
Domination and Global Political Justice
Domination consists in subjection to the will of others and manifests itself both as a personal relation and a structural phenomenon serving as the context for relations of power. Domination has again become a central political concern through the revival of the republican tradition of political thought (not to be confused with the US political party). However, normative debates about domination have mostly remained limited to the context of domestic politics. Also, the republican debate has not taken into account alternative ways of conceptualizing domination. Critical theorists, liberals, feminists, critical race theorists, and postcolonial writers have discussed domination in different wa...
Societal Self-empowerment in Germany
Most recently, various groups have drawn attention to their political causes by demonstratively breaking the law, whether it is violating compulsory education in Fridays for Future demonstrations or refusing to abide by pandemic containment measures among critics of the Corona policy. This book explores what lies behind these rule-breaking events: supporters of the Fridays for Future movement, while dissatisfied with climate policy, are well integrated into the political system; people who may not abide by Corona rules, on the other hand, sometimes exhibit considerable alienation from and distrust of the political system.

Der Rechtsstaat in Zeiten von Notstand und Terrorabwehr
Ein Rechtsstaat muss sich im Alltag fortlaufend bewähren. Besonders herausgefordert wird er aber in aussergewöhnlichen Bedrohungslagen, wie sie die Notstands- und Antiterrorgesetzgebung regulieren. Der vorliegende und vorläufig letzte Band des deutsch-türkischen Forums berichtet über die diesbezügliche aktuelle Rechtslage und verfassungsgerichtliche Praxis in Deutschland und in der Türkei und enthält rechtsstaatlich reflektierte Korrektur- und Reformvorschläge.

Proportionality, Fundamental Rights and Balance of Powers
The ECJ has applied fundamental rights and the principle of proportionality for decades. This book tries to elucidate the Court's approach to these fundamental tenets of Community law. It starts with establishing a firm theoretical foundation. Then, the book analyzes the case law of the ECJ and other constitutional courts to find out which method courts actually apply. Next, it is discussed why the courts follow a particular approach. Then, it is considered whether the approach fulfils constitutional requirements. Finally, a rationalizing model of balancing is developed. The book is useful for the practitioner as well as for the researcher. It does not present a mere summary of the Court's case law but a systematization of the underlying rationales.
