Edited by Graham Maddox and Graham Young, the book focuses on aspects of legitimacy such as its role in a non-proliferation society, its relationship with trust, liberal democracy and politics, moral parsimony, and legitimacy in the pluralist context. Several of the contributers raise issues relating to normative and empirical legitimacy, and question whether government actions are damaging to the regime in rfelation to underlying norms and principles. There exists an overlap within the content of the chapters relating to the conceptual study of legitimacy, legitimacy in liberal-democratic political systems and legitimacy in contemporary international relations. The contributers pose questions, which by virue of the complexity of legitimation cover a broad spectrum of factors such as inertia, passivity, discontent, political dissent, social dislocation and crime.
