Contents:

The evolution of the international organization-nation-state relationship -- The philosophical basis for international organizations' promotion of democracy: Kant, his acolytes and challengers -- Rights: plural definitions -- International organizations and the promotion of democracy -- Challenges to the realization of a global right to democracy -- Citizenship and the global right to democracy: cosmopolitan hope and evolution.

Summary: This is an expansive study of what we call "The Global Right to Democracy." The idea gestates from a late 20th century reading of Immanuel Kant. This book is the first comprehensive look at the intersection of neo-Kantian theory and democratization programs undertaken by international organizations and non-governmental bodies in post-conflict and fragile states. The features of this new, assumed right, seem to graft onto international law--and thus hand over to international agencies--methods of protecting and effecting 'democracy' in its broadest definition. The consequence seems to be an alt.
