Herrschaft und Recht bei Aristoteles

What does Aristotle regard as the conditions of a legitimate relationship between political rule and the law? The interpretation of Aristotelian politics in this study shows that the central political project of the modern age namely, the grounding and implementation of the natural rights of the individual can be conceptualized as the continuation and embodiment of Aristotle's political philosophy rather than a radical break from it.

Zusammenfassung
"[...] by concentrating on the phenomenology of natural communities, the forms of natural rulership, and the interest theory of rights, Weber is to be commended for having given us new reasons for considering the possibility of ascribing a theory of natural rights to Aristotle and therefore for doubting the wisdom of drawing the line between ancient and modern political thought on the issue of individual natural rights. This is no small achievement that will surely be welcomed by Aristotelian scholars, particularly those interested in the bearing of Aristotle's work upon contemporary political thought."
