Description

A philosophical interpretation of the historical debate between Bentham and the classical Common Law theory which has shaped contemporary conceptions of the nature, tasks, and limits of law and adjudication. As well as exploring the philosophical foundations of Common Law theory, Professor Postema traces the development of Bentham's theories of law and adjudication drawing of the full range of his published and unpublished writings.
