Allgemeine Staatslehre: Begriff, Moglichkeit, Fragen im 21. Jahrhundert

What are the characteristics of the modern state? And what challenges does it face in the twenty-first century? These and other highly topical questions are addressed in Alexander Thiele's textbook. With its special focus on the democratic constitutional state, the work is aimed as much at students of law, politics, and economics as anyone interested in the "nature of the state" and its future.
