Hans Kelsen and the Case for Democracy is a contextual analysis of Kelsenian political thought. Usually, commentators reduce Kelsen's work to his theory of law, and underestimate or simply ignore his reflections on democracy. The great strength of Kelsen's political thinking lies in the arguments that it musters against the critics who condemn or debunk the institutions of parliamentary democracies.
