内容説明

For sophomore/junior courses in Philosophy of Law. This anthology of classical and contemporary philosophical and legal essays and legal cases focuses on legal philosophy as its own subject-rather than as an outgrowth of social or political philosophy or applied ethics. The essays focus on how law is organized and the particular philosophical issues that law raises. The book requires students to think through actual debates-many of them still live in the courts.
