“…Finally, also interesting is Charles Jones's suggestiveFif tentativeFlinkage between Schmitt's ideas, particularly his Political Romanticism, and the thinking of E. H. Carr (Jones, 1998:160-63), though unlike in the case of Morgenthau there is little evidence of any direct connection here. 10 For broader discussions of Schmitt's thinking in addition to those already cited, see Christi (1998), Dyzenhaus (1997, and Mouffe (1999). 11 Again, see also the astute exploration of these links in Huysmans (1998 particularly intense relationship that actors feel toward it.…”

The theory of “securitization” developed by the Copenhagen School provides one of the most innovative, productive, and yet controversial avenues of research in contemporary security studies. This article provides an assessment of the foundations of this approach and its limitations, as well as its significance for broader areas of International Relations theory. Locating securitization theory within the context of both classical Realism influenced by Carl Schmitt, and current work on constructivist ethics, it argues that while the Copenhagen School is largely immune from the most common criticisms leveled against it, the increasing impact of televisual communication in security relations provides a fundamental challenge for understanding the processes and institutions involved in securitization, and for the political ethics advocated by the Copenhagen School.

“…Legality is a narrow concept concerned with rightful procedures whilst legitimacy is a broader concept that embraces social and normative meanings (Beetham, 1991;Bodansky, 2008:311-12;Dyzenhaus, 1997). For example, a losing party in a legal dispute can accept the legitimacy of a verdict based on the decision-making process being legitimate and at the same time disagree with the reasons provided for the ruling (Bodansky, 2008).…”

Ngo Legitimacy: Four Models

The aim of this paper is to examine NGOs' legitimacy in the context of global politics. In order to yield a better understanding of NGOs' legitimacy at the international level it is important to examine how their legitimacy claims are evaluated. This paper proposes dividing the literature into four models based on the theoretical and analytical approaches to their legitimacy claims: the market model, social change model, new institutionalism model and the critical model. The legitimacy criteria generated by the models are significantly different in their analytical scope of how one is to assess the role of NGOs operating as political actors contributing to democracy. The paper argues that the models present incomplete, and sometimes conflicting, views of NGOs' legitimacy and that this poses a legitimacy dilemma for those assessing the political agency of NGOs in world politics. The paper concludes that only by approaching their legitimacy holistically can the democratic role of NGOs be explored and analysed in the context of world politics.
