Summary
The existence of a democratic system of local government within a democratic state has bothered German jurisprudence since the Weimar Republic. Stefan Lenz's study traces the complex relations between how local authorities are run and the democratic principle enshrined in Germany's basic law. Though doctrinal in its focus, insights from legal history and theory as well as the social sciences give the study a wide-ranging outlook.
