Resumen de What has Become of the Emerging Right to Democratic Governance?
In 1992 the American Journal of International Law published an article by Tom Franck entitled �The Emerging Right to Democratic Governance�. The article inaugurated an important debate on the relationship between international law and democracy. Reviewing that debate, I examine four different ways of thinking about the contemporary significance of the emerging right to democratic governance. While not claiming that any is wrong, I consider some respects in which each is limited. I also discuss Haiti, as a country which inspired the thesis of the emerging democratic entitlement, and one which remains illuminating for it today.
