Workshop on Legitimacy, Compliance, and the Roots of Justice

9413256 CALDEIRA这是关于在民主化进程背景下举办合法性和遵守问题讲习班的建议。冷战的结束和民主在世界范围内的广泛传播使人们对民主如何产生、巩固、持续和灭亡产生了极大的兴趣。这些问题的两个重要子集是政治和法律机构如何以及在什么条件下获得合法性和获得顺从；如果有的话，制度的合法性和遵守法律之间有什么关系？研究这些理论和实证问题的学者远远不够。因此，这个项目将制定一个更加协调和综合的研究议程。拟议的讲习班将有助于形成这一议程，并为研究制定一套连贯的知识问题。＊＊＊

9413256 CALDEIRA This is a proposal for a workshop on legitimacy and compliance in the context of processes of democratization. The end of the Cold War and the more general spread of democracy throughout the world have generated tremendous intellectual interest in how democracies arise, take hold, persist, and perish. Two important subsets of these questions are how and under what conditions political and legal institutions acquire legitimacy and gain compliance; and what, if any, relationship is there between the legitimacy of institutions and compliance with law. Not nearly enough scholars are pursuing these theoretical and empirical issues. Accordingly, this project will develop a more coordinated and integrated agenda of research. The proposed workshop will help to shape this agenda and develop a coherent set of intellectual issues for research. ***
