Max Weber on Natural Justice - Dictionary of Arguments

Habermas III 355
Natural justice/Weber/Habermas: Weber describes the rationality of modern law in such a way that the procedural rational use of legal organizational means is in the foreground. This is shown by his interpretation of rational natural justice.
>Rationality
, >Purpose rationality.
Habermas III 356
Natural Justice/Habermas: in its various versions from Locke and Hobbes to Rousseau and Kant to Hegel, we can understand it as a theoretical framework for attempts to establish legally organized state and social constitutions. (1)
>J. Locke, >Th. Hobbes, >J.-J. Rousseau, >I. Kant, >G.W.F. Hegel.
Weber: this right of reason links the legitimacy of positive law to formal conditions and ultimately to rational agreement.
Laws, >Reason.
The basis is the right of freedom, above all the freedom of contract. The voluntary rational contract is either the historical cause of all societies or a regulatory measure of evaluation.(2)
>Contracts, >Contract Theory, >Freedom, >Society.
