Autorenporträt
Georg Jellinek (1851–1911) was a distinguished legal scholar, political scientist, and one of the foremost contributors to modern public law and state theory. Born in Leipzig, Germany, Jellinek's academic pursuits led him to remarkable intellectual heights, earning him a reputation as an erudite commentator on constitutional law and political thought. His seminal work, 'Die Erklarung der Menschen- und Burgerrechte' or 'The Declaration of the Rights of Man and of Citizens,' remains a cornerstone in the study of legal history and the development of human rights discourse. Within this book, Jellinek intricately analyzes the pivotal influence of the French Revolution on the conception of individual rights and its lasting impact on constitutional establishments worldwide. His characterization of rights and his 'status theory' contributed significantly to understanding the law's role in shaping societal structures. Influenced by German positivism and the historicist school, Jellinek's literary style combines empirical rigor with a profound normative inquiry. His scholarship extends to examining statehood, sovereignty, and implications of legal personhood, thereby providing a comprehensive framework that continues to influence legal theory. Jellinek's legacy persists in contemporary discussions on civil liberties, the rule of law, and democratic governance.
