Hans Kelsen on Fictions - Dictionary of Arguments
Brocker I 140 Fictions/Political Fiction/Democratic Theory/Kelsen: Kelsen vehemently rejects fictions and metaphysical argumentations because they are directed against the openness of the political process and want to shut it down. Among the fictions Kelsen counts all forms of the idea of representation which want to derive statements from the supposed essence of representation about how parliament must be structured and how its relationship to the people or the government should look like.(1) >Metaphysics/Kelsen. 1.
