ISBN: 9780198258995 / Angielski / Twarda / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book addresses a central topic in contemporary jurisprudence, namely, whether it is possible for legal interpretations to be objective.

The Uses of Discretion
ISBN: 9780198259503 / Angielski / Miękka / 448 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Discretion is a pervasive phenomenon in legal systems. It is of concern to lawyers because it can be a force for advancing the broad purposes of law and subverting them.
