Republicanism, Democracy, and Constitutionalism
Richard Bellamy
University College London - Department of Political Science
2008
REPUBLICANISM AND POLITICAL THEORY, pp. 159-189, C. Laborde and J. Maynor, eds., Blackwell, 2008
Abstract:
Republicanism has had an ambiguous relationship with both democracy and constitutionalism. This chapter explores these relations to argue that a) republicanism is incompatible with a legal consitution and judicial review and b) that is favours competitive party democracy and majority rule on the grounds that these promote both political equality and a balance of power that guard against domination.
