Emil F: Lehrbuch des Katholischen und
Evangelischen Kirchenrechts

Lehrbuch des Katholischen und Evangelischen Kirchenrechts

Magdeburger Schriften

Am 26. Juni 1524 predigte Martin Luther in der völlig überfüllten Magdeburger Johanniskirche. Sein Auftritt machte die Reformation in der größten Stadt im Osten des Reiches unumkehrbar. Keine andere Stadtreformation außerhalb Wittenbergs hat Luther stärker gefördert. Zugleich beeindruckt die Dynamik der Gemeindereformation von unten, deren Impulse für gesellschaftliche Erneuerung von einer breiten gesellschaftlichen Mitte getragen wurden. Trotz aller Quellenverluste gibt es keinen Zweifel. Lange bevor sich erste Territorialstaaten zur neuen Lehre bekannten, wurde Magdeburg als vitale und streitbare Hochburg der Reformation überregional zum Begriff. 

500 Jahre später nehmen Historikerinnen und Historiker aus fünf europäischen Ländern und den USA diese Anfänge neu in den Blick. Unter der Leitthese "Metropolen als Innovationsräume" vergleichen sie den Modellfall Magdeburg mit ausgewählten Großstädten im Reich und in Westeuropa. Ihre Beiträge verknüpfen bewährte Forschungsergebnisse zur Stadt in der Reformation mit aktuellen Ansätzen der Metropolen- und Hanseforschung. Im Schnittpunkt von Reichs-, Kultur- und Stadtgeschichte machen sie die Dynamik des Umbruchs in verdichteten urbanen Kommunikationsräumen zum Thema.

Critical Race Theory

Originalism Is Racism interrogates America's unhealthy obsession with its founding generation by challenging the ascendancy of originalism as the preferred method of constitutional interpretation--both among the justices of the Supreme Court and for significant portions of the American public. The book argues that interpreting the Constitution in accordance with the original intentions or understandings of the founding generation necessarily enshrines and exacerbates racial inequality. For one, originalism perpetuates white supremacy by rejecting the equal human dignity of Black people and other racialized groups and denying them the opportunity to participate in public life on equal terms. It also undermines the abolition of racial oppression by subjecting Black, Brown, and Indigenous people to increased risks of violence and death. In a word, originalism is racism.

Originalism Is Racism: Volume 2

Hart Studies in Constitutional Theory

This is the second part of a 2-volume set which presents an in-depth investigation into the canon of constitutionally conforming interpretation. This second volume builds upon the insights of the first volume, which includes national reports on the use of constitutional interpretation. In Volume 2, the analysis is extended beyond the national context, discussing its application in the supranational and international contexts, including in EU law and the domestic use of international law. It presents several critical perspectives, challenging the legitimacy of constitutionally conforming interpretation, and looks at the invisible constitution, constitutional amendments, and the impact of legalism. The volume is rounded off by three comparative analyses, which formulate universally applicable insights. Together with Volume 1, this book fills an important gap in legal scholarship and sets the stage for cross-national discourse on this critical legal method.

Volume 2: Connections and Analysis

Constitutionally Conforming Interpretation – Comparative Perspectives

This book offers new perspectives on two key themes: the criminal law of sexual consent and the temporalities of law. It uses detailed feminist analysis to investigate how the kinds of time produced by statutes and court decisions are vital to constructing the gendered, liberal, legal subject. By shedding light upon a contested and multi-faceted legal issue, it demonstrates that more expansive temporalities are the precondition for a richer, relational understanding of consent. This book's fresh approach to sexual consent is developed using the law of England and Wales but is relevant to all jurisdictions where consent is an element of sexual offences law. Its distinctive approach to legal temporalities has the potential to be applied to other areas of law, providing insight into both current law and possibilities for reform.

Explores law’s constructions of time, illuminating key problems for sexual consent law and offering potential solutions.

Some Versions of Legalism

Examines whether the rule of law can endure without its natural law and metaphysical foundations, arguing for a renewed, human-centered legal order grounded in objective moral principles and capable of addressing contemporary challenges such as AI, technocracy, and decolonization.
This provocative interdisciplinary volume addresses a mounting global crisis: the erosion of the rule of law in an increasingly secular and technological world. As societies move into what the authors call the "fourth era" of legal history, the rule of law is frequently reduced to a mere "toolkit" for elites or a "checklist" for bureaucratic efficiency, stripped of its deeper moral and transcendent roots. The book explores a vital question: can legal systems remain just when they are "truncated of transcendence" and disconnected from a higher moral order? By sifting through the legacies of legal giants like Lon Fuller and theologians like Karl Barth, the contributors argue that a purely procedural "inner morality" is insufficient to protect human dignity against authoritarian relapses or the cold logic of "technocratisation." 
Central to the book's unique vision is a multivalent, pluralistic re-envisioning of global norms. Drawing on the Christian philosophy of Herman Dooyeweerd, specifically his concept of "sphere sovereignty," the authors propose a framework where diverse religious and secular traditions can collaborate without sacrificing their distinct identities. This approach offers a powerful way to decolonize the rule of law, moving away from "one-size-fits-all" Western impositions toward a culturally sensitive synthesis of universal principles and local traditions. 
The text also tackles the controversial relationship between Natural Law and the 10 Commandments, debating whether positive laws should be grounded in "naturally knowable" truths or specific religious revelations in a pluralistic state. 
Looking toward the future, the authors issue a stark warning against the rise of Generative AI (GenAI) in legal adjudication. They argue that replacing human value judgments with machine-driven algorithms threatens to eliminate the discretion and relational interaction essential to true justice. To counter this, the book calls for educational reform and a shift toward "principled legal education" that prioritizes ethics, restorative justice, and a "facts first" approach. Ultimately, this work is a call to action for legal professionals, theologians, and the public to reclaim law as a framework for human flourishing-a "language of love" between the divine and the human that protects the vulnerable from the arbitrary exercise of power.

Reclaiming Justice Through Natural Law

The Rule of Law, Human Dignity and the Future of Democracy

This book offers a novel jurisprudential account of law by arguing for a conceptual understanding of participation as foundational to a general explanation of law and legitimate authority. In doing so, the book challenges dominant accounts, arguing that the existing failure to separate an explanation of law's authority from the concept of its legitimacy has left a general explanation of law incomplete. From this, the book argues, both general jurisprudence and broader society have suffered. This is especially so for societies that tend to fall outside the Euro-American concern of much mainstream analytical jurisprudence.The historical experience of such societies, however, reveals much of normative and analytical significance. Bringing together normative, historical archival, and case study analysis, the book develops a positive account of law that highlights the importance of participation as a multifaceted process in the continuous historical development of law and legal system in any society. This account, the book argues, is crucial to a more complete explanation of law's authoritative function and normative legitimacy. The book's account of participation, further, foregrounds a broader and more normatively robust understanding of the relationship between a general explanation of law and other philosophically fundamental ideals, namely: freedom, justice, democracy, and deliberation. The book's examinations, which integrate arguments from scholarship in African political philosophy with mainstream arguments in analytical jurisprudence, lead it to new and original answers to longstanding questions in legal philosophy about the nature of law's authority, it's legitimate justification and, the grounds also, for collectively disobeying it.

Law’s Moral Legitimacy

Art that appropriates everyday life interrogates boundaries created by the law. Artists have made legal relationships such as contracts and property the subject of their art, have used them as a medium, and have relied on the law to assert their individual legal and moral rights. However, in this book Pilcher proposes that art puts into question the law's exclusions whilst also inviting us to examine questions of accountability and responsibility for reconfiguring the way legal borders are used to regulate the world. Examining a range of artworks including State Britain by Mark Wallinger, Saydnaya (the missing 19db), After SFX, and Walled Unwalled by Lawrence Abu Hamdan, The Underlying by Ami Clarke, Forensic Architecture's The Killing of Mark Duggan, and Voteauction by UBERMORGEN.COM, Pilcher explores how art has the scope to expose the constraints and contingencies of the regulation of the world by the law.

Unsettling Boundaries: Contemporary Art and the Law

This book solves a critical problem in constitutional law: the inconsistent application of the proportionality analysis to equality rights. Despite proportionality being the world's preeminent method for constitutional rights adjudication, scholars and judges struggle when applying it to equality claims. This book delivers a coherent framework for applying proportionality to equality rights that draws from both civil and common law jurisdictions: Canada, the US, Germany, and Austria.The book analyses the whole corpus of equality rights cases of the Supreme Court of Canada, including its latest landmark decisions Quebec (Attorney General) v. Kanyinda (2026) and R. v. Sharma (2022). By proposing a new, step-by-step structure, the book resolves the theoretical and practical issues that currently plague Courts.
