Solutions to the problem are sought through innovative interpretations of the rule
The rule of law, democracy, and human dignity are the three concepts that are explored in this book in order to find answers to the issue of how to prevent ethnic conflicts in multiethnic states. The book is divided into three thematic sections, with the first section covering topics such as the principle of compulsory adjudication in interstate relations, the principle of democracy, and principles regarding the recognition of individual and collective identities. These European principles are then investigated by drawing on legal and political theories.
The second section presents three ways of conceptualizing ethnical needs in multiethnic states: asymmetric federalism, democratic account, and cooperative federalism. The third and final section elaborates on these conceptualizations and discusses their implications for the implementation of plural democracy in European countries.
The contributors to this volume come from a range of disciplines, including law, political science, sociology, and anthropology. They offer a diverse range of perspectives on the issue of plural democracy and its potential to promote human dignity in Europe. The book is well-written and accessible to a wide audience, including scholars, policymakers, and practitioners.
In conclusion, this book is a valuable contribution to the study of plural democracy and its potential to promote human dignity in Europe. The contributors offer innovative interpretations of the rule of law, democracy, and human dignity and provide a wealth of insights and perspectives on the issue. The book is well-written and accessible to a wide audience, and it will be of interest to scholars, policymakers, and practitioners alike.
