The Role of Semantics in Legal Expert Systems and Legal Reasoning
Ratio Juris 4 (2):219-244 (1991)
Abstract
The consensus among legal philosophers is probably that rule-based legal expert systems leave much to be desired as aids in legal decision-making. Why? What can we do about it? A bureaucrat administering some set of complex rules will ascertain the facts and apply the rules to them in order to discover their consequences for the case in hand. This process of deductive reasoning is characteristically bureaucratic.Links
