The Argument From Injustice: A Reply to Legal Positivism
Oxford University Press (2002)
| Abstract | At the heart of this book is the age-old question of how law and morality are related. The legal positivist, insisting on the separation of the two, explicates the concept of law independently of morality. The author challenges this view, arguing that there are, first, conceptually necessary connections between law and morality and, second, normative reasons for including moral elements in the concept of law. | |||||||||
