That is mostly just a hole in the doc.  see:
https://shiro.apache.org/static/1.2.2/apidocs/org/apache/shiro/realm/AuthorizingRealm.html

_Most_ realm implementations handle authorization.

Simple explanation:
authc (authentication) - login, who you are
authz (authorization) - permissions, what you have access to
