This collection assembles twelve contributions discussing Rainer Forst's political and social philosophy. Forst's work is addressed from the perspective of how it can contribute to tackling some core questions of the philosophy of law and legal theory ... In particular, the volume asks how Forst's comprehensive theory of justice can shed light on the nature and value of constitutional law and the rights that are protected therein.
