What if the Constitution raises issues it is unable to address from the very outset? Who gets to decide then and who gets to act? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn a time in which constitutional crises seem to be too ubiquitous to still count as exceptions, questions such as these are asked with ever-increasing urgency. The answers to these questions cannot be found in arguments based on contingent legal stipulations but have to reach beyond the vague and fleeting instructions of positive law.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Christoph Bezemek\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1509983562\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781509983568\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Hart Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/25\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.21lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.63d","brand":"Christoph Bezemek","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48623528935679,"sku":"9781509983568","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/vienna-lectures-on-legal-philosophy-christoph-bezemek-9781509983568","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
