John Finnis's proposal to rehabilitate Aquinas's natural law theory as an appropriate foundation of legal and moral theory rests on the assumption that Aquinas's theory can be restored by eliminating the mistaken interpretations of subsequent natural law theorists. This book challenges that assumption. After a brief analysis of Aquinas, the theories of Suárez, Grotius, and Pufendorf are investigated. It is argued that their theories are no 'mistakes', but attempts at solving problems inherent in natural law theory. As these attempts all fail, tensions remain, and ultimately lead to the demise of the theory. Finally it is argued that Finnis, running into the same problems, cannot hope to restore Aquinas's theoretical edifice.

Der Sammelband stellt die Frage nach dem Verhältnis von Naturrecht und Staat in Europa. Die Beiträge werfen in mehrfacher Hinsicht neues Licht auf die Geschichte der naturrechtlichen Staatslehre: In zeitlicher Hinsicht greift der Band bis in die Scholastik und bis ins 19. Jahrhundert aus. Als Grundlage zu einer vergleichenden Geschichte des Naturrechts werden neben Deutschland und der Habsburgermonarchie England, Frankreich, Italien und Spanien behandelt. Methodisch greifen die Aufsätze Grundsätze der neuen Ideengeschichte auf insbesondere wird nach den politischen Funktionen des Naturrechts gefragt und nach den Auswirkungen des Naturrechts als politischer Sprache auf Rechtsnormen- und Gesetzgebungstheorie sowie auf die politische und rechtliche Praxis.
