Dialogues on Jurisprudence (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

This collection explores the existence and extent of the divide between analytic legal philosophy and critical legal theory.

Motivated by a shared desire to bridge these traditions, the editors and contributors establish meaningful dialogue between the two, identifying key points of overlap and divergence. Discussing the genesis of analytic and critical work within jurisprudence, remarking upon their distinctive perspectives, methods, and politics, and engaging in personal reflections along the way, the contributions to this collection each approach their subject matter in slightly different and complementary modes. With detailed argumentative chapters from leading scholars within both traditions, and edited by a team that sits across the two, this collection provides an essential point of reference and reflection for students, teachers, and researchers interested in jurisprudence and legal theory, very broadly construed. Topics covered include the nature of law and legal reasoning, the history of jurisprudence within legal education and scholarship, and the connections between law, politics, power, and morality.

The first sustained attempt by analytic legal philosophers and critical legal theorists to find some common ground and move forward together, Dialogues in Jurisprudence asks what the theory of law might look like if we go beyond the ridged but ultimately contingent categories of scholarship handed to us by history.
