| Abstract
|
:
|
In recent years instances of corruption, extremism, and public distrust have increasingly raised the question of political legitimacy. Jean-Marc Coicaud examines the issue and offers answers to questions ranging from the connections between morality and politics, and how rulers acquire or lose the right to govern.
