Summary/Abstract: The second and final part of this research investigates the modern theories of subsidiarity: Althusius' theory, the federalist one, fiscal and liberal ones. I highlight that every theory makes a contribution to clarify the functional role of subsidiarity in the mechanism of democracy: for assuring the sovereignty of the communities, respectively of the individuals, for guaranteeing fair justice for all and for making possible a good fiscal policy. Each of these problems are very important for a democratic regime and the subsidiarity is essential in finding the correct answer for them.
