Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

-Dr. Skubik's interpretation of Hart's theory is not only novel but radical. Skubik seeks to overcome the divide between the legal positivist and natural law traditions by showing Hart's own theory to be a version of natural law. The book promises to spark debate within legal philosophy; and legal positivism will never be the same.- (Gerald F. Gaus, University of Minnesota, Duluth)
-Among many impressive features are: a clear eye for the apt example, a highly persuasive style of argumentation, ...and a particularly original reexamination of the Humean circumstances of justice.- (Neil MacCormick, Regius Chair of Public Law and the Law of Nature and Nations, University of Edinburgh)"

Reseña del editor:

Into the far too frequently arid debate in legal philosophic writings, wherein positivists and natural lawyers rack up critical but nondecisive points one against the other, enters a fresh perspective which details a firm foundation for reconsidering the joinder of past enemies under a unified banner. Carefully sifting the work of writers such as H.L.A. Hart and Hans Kelsen, who insist upon the analytic separation of law as it 'is' from law as it 'ought to be', the book employs illustrative case law to highlight and methodically move through positivism's strengths and weaknesses, and suggests modifications and elaborations that slowly but finally break down this barrier of separation. In the end, a sound theory of positivism is seen to unfold as natural law.
