Wie kann ueber Recht und Herrschaft nachgedacht werden? Mit dieser Frage beschaeftigt sich die Studie und taucht unter anderen in philosophische, historische, theologische und soziologische Grundlagen der Entwicklung von modernem Rechts- und Herrschaftsdenken ein. Die Untersuchung rekonstruiert und vergleicht in innovativer Weise das Rechts- und Herrschaftsverstaendnis von Bartolome de Las Casas (1484-1566) mit jenem von Max Weber (1864-1920). In ihr eroeffnet sich ein systematisch multidisziplinaerer Blick auf Recht und Herrschaft. Die Leserschaft wird durch gegenwartsrelevante Motive wie das Verhaeltnis von Legitimitaet, Ratio und Herrschaft oder von Naturrecht und positivem Recht gefuehrt.
