All the rest is commentary.’. .These words at the beginning of the preface of this book perfectly indicate what On Law and Reason is about. It is a theory about the nature of the law which emphasises the role of reason in the law and which refuses to limit the role of reason to the application of deductive logic.. .In 1989, when the first edition of On Law and Reason appeared, this book was ground breaking for several reasons. It provided a rationalistic theory of the law in the language of analytic philosophy and based on a thorough understanding of the results, including technical ones, of analytic philosophy. That was not an obvious combination at the time of the book’s first appearance and still is not. The result is an analytical rigor that is usually associated with positivist theories of the law, combined with a philosophical position that is not natural law in a strict sense, but which shares with it the emphasis on the role of reason in determining what the law is. If only for this rare combination, On Law and Reason still deserves careful study.. .On Law and | 出版日期 | Book 2009Latest edition | 关键词 | Argumentation; Legal Justification; Legal Logic; coherence theory; law; logic; natural law; nature of law; r | 版次 | 2 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4020-8730-1 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4020-9706-5 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4020-8730-1Series ISSN 1572-4395 Series E-ISSN 2215-0315 | issn_series | 1572-4395 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2009 |
