Law and Legitimacy

Law and legitimacy is an anthology arising from an interdisciplinary investigation into the relationship between law and legitimacy. In dealing with this time honored problematic, the collection offers a variety of new perspectives and a range of issues are discussed, including the legitimacy of the international criminal court, EU’s regulation of smoking and tobacco and the protection of consumers. The authors draw not only on legal sources in their investigations, but also on philosophy, history and sociology for a truly interdisciplinary approach.
