書籍簡介

在事實與規範之間，Jürgen哈貝馬斯提出了他的交往行動理論(1981)的法律和政治含義，使他在1962年出版的《公共領域的結構轉型》(the Structural Transformation of Public Sphere)所宣佈的項目取得成果。這項新工作是對最近關於在後工業社會中法治和民主可能性的辯論的一個重要貢獻，但它的意義遠不止於此。介紹由威廉Rehg簡潔地捕捉工作的特殊性質,注意的是,它提供了一個全面,社會上通知概念化的法律和基本權利,規範賬户的法治和憲政國家,企圖橋民主規範和實證的方法,以及民主所需要的社會背景。最後，本書以一項大膽的提議為這些爭論設定了框架，提出了一種新的法律範式，超越了從一開始就困擾現代政治理論的二分法，這種二分法仍然是當前所謂自由主義者和公民共和黨人之間爭論的基礎。這本書包括一個後記寫在1994年，它重申了其最初的接受的論點，和兩個附錄，覆蓋了關鍵的發展，在這本書之前。哈貝馬斯本人也積極參與翻譯工作，根據需要對文本進行改編，使英語讀者更容易理解。

In Between Facts and Norms, Jürgen Habermas works out the legal and political implications of his Theory of Communicative Action (1981), bringing to fruition the project announced with his publication of The Structural Transformation of the Public Sphere in 1962. This new work is a major contribution to recent debates on the rule of law and the possibilities of democracy in postindustrial societies, but it is much more. The introduction by William Rehg succinctly captures the special nature of the work, noting that it offers a sweeping, sociologically informed conceptualization of law and basic rights, a normative account of the rule of law and the constitutional state, an attempt to bridge normative and empirical approaches to democracy, and an account of the social context required for democracy. Finally, the work frames and caps these arguments with a bold proposal for a new paradigm of law that goes beyond the dichotomies that have afflicted modern political theory from its inception and that still underlie current controversies between so-called liberals and civic republicans. The book includes a post* written in 1994, which restates the argument in light of its initial reception, and two appendixes, which cover key developments that preceded the book. Habermas himself was actively involved in the translation, adapting the text as necessary to make it more accessible to English-speaking readers.
