Legal reasoning and legal theory
Neil MacCormick (ed.)
New York: Oxford University Press (1978)
Abstract
This study focuses on current jurisprudential debate between the "positivist" views of Herbert Hart and the "rights thesis" of Ronald Dworkin. MacCormick provides a critical analysis of the Dworkin position while also modifying Hart's. It stands firmly on its own as a contribution to an extensive literature.
