The chapters in this volume deal with timely issues regarding democracy in theory and in practice in today's globalized world.

The essays challenge and defend assumptions about the role of democracy as a viable political and legal institution in response to globalization, keeping in focus the role of rights at the normative foundations of democracy in a pluralistic world.
