The Opposite Mirrors: An Essay on the Conventionalist Theory of Institutions
ISBN: 9789048145119 / Angielski / Miękka / 230 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. How do social institutions exist? How do they direct our conduct? The Opposite Mirrors defends the thesis that the existence of institutions is a conventional matter. Ultimately they exist because we believe in their existence, and because they play a role in our practical reasoning. Human action necessarily has an unpredictable aspect; human institutions perform an important task by reducing uncertainty in our interactions. The author applies this thesis to the most important institutions: the law and the monetary system. In his analysis he connects many traditional topics of the...

Informatics and the Foundations of Legal Reasoning
ISBN: 9789048145423 / Angielski / Miękka / 376 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Informatics and the Foundations of Legal Reasoning represents a close collaboration between a wide range of disciplines and countries. Fourteen papers, together with a long analytical introduction by the editors, were selected from the contributions of legal theorists, computer scientists, philosophers and logicians who were members of an International Working Group supported by the European Commission. The Group was mandated to work towards determining how far the law is amenable to formal modeling, and in what ways computers might assist legal thinking and practice. The book is the...

The Tapestry of the Law: Scotland, Legal Culture and Legal Theory
ISBN: 9789048147670 / Angielski / Miękka / 258 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Tapestry of the Law brings together a study of a particular legal system - that of Scotland - with a number of (mainly contemporary) theories of or about law. Rather than endorsing any one legal theory, it ends with some tentative conclusions about legal theory itself. It is written for all those interested in the law, whether in the academic context, as practitioners of law or politics, or from the lay point of view, but primarily with students in mind. At this level, chapters II to VI provide an information base for those embarking on courses in comparative law or politics, whilst the...

Fundamentals of Legal Argumentation: A Survey of Theories on the Justification of Judicial Decisions
ISBN: 9789048151752 / Angielski / Miękka / 225 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Legal argumentation is a distinctively multidisciplinary field of inquiry. It draws its data, assumptions and methods from disciplines such as legal theory, legal philosophy, logic, argumentation theory, rhetoric, linguistics, literary theory, philosophy, sociology, and artificial intelligence. This presents the growing group of interested scholars and students with a problem of access, since, even for those active in the field, it is not common to have acquired a familiarity with relevant aspects of each discipline that enters into this multidisciplinary matrix. Fundamentals of Legal...

Reasons for Action and the Law
ISBN: 9789048153015 / Angielski / Miękka / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A focus on reasons for action and practical reason is the perspective chosen by many contemporary legal philosophers for the analysis of some central questions of their discipline. This book offers a critical evaluation of that approach, by carefully examining the empirical, logical and normative problems hidden behind the concepts of 'reason for action' and 'practical reasoning'. Unlike most other works in this field, it is a meta-theoretical study which analyses and compares how different theories use the notion of reason in their reconstruction of problems concerning issues such as...

Reasoning with Rules and Precedents: A Computational Model of Legal Analysis
ISBN: 9789048153749 / Angielski / Miękka / 219 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Few areas of human expertise are so well understood that they can be completely reduced to general principles. Similarly, there are few domains in which experience is so extensive that every new problem precisely matches a previous problem whose solution is known. When neither rules nor examples are individually sufficient, problem-solving expertise depends on integrating both. This book presents a computational framework for the integration of rules and cases for analytic tasks typified by legal analysis. The book uses the framework for integrating cases and rules as a basis for a new model...

Essays in Legal Theory
ISBN: 9789048154814 / Angielski / Miękka / 445 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. As I explain in the introduction, this is the third in aseries of collections of my previously published essays in legal theory. All of the essays here but three have been revised for this volume.

Living Lawfully: Love in Law and Law in Love
ISBN: 9789048157693 / Angielski / Miękka / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The aim of this book is to explore what it means to live a life under the law. Does a life of law preclude love and does a life of love preclude law? Part of the theme of the book is that social questions also raise individual moral and ethical questions; that to live lawfully implies both a question of how I should live in my relations with my fellows and how society should be organised. These questions must be looked at together. The book explores these questions and in looking at the articulation of law and love touches upon debates in personal morality, aesthetics, epistemology, social...

Legal Institutions
ISBN: 9789048158997 / Angielski / Miękka / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Building on his contributions to institutional legal theory in Institutional Legal Facts of 1993 (Law and Philosophy Library, volume 18), the author presents a comprehensive theory of legal institutions. To that end, the initial theoretical approach, which mainly concentrated on problems connected with legal powers and legal acts (acts-in-law), is widened to allow for the development of a theory of legal judgements capable of accounting not only for enacted but also unwritten law (legal principles and customary law). With the use of the concept of institutional legal facts, the...

ISBN: 9789048184125 / Angielski / Miękka / 329 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. During the last half of the twentieth century, legal philosophy (or legal theory or jurisprudence) has grown significantly. It is no longer the domain of a few isolated scholars in law and philosophy. Hundreds of scholars from diverse fields attend international meetings on the subject. In some universities, large lecture courses of five hundred students or more study it. The primary aim of the Law and Philosophy Library is to present some of the best original work on legal philosophy from both the Anglo-American and European traditions. Not only does it help make some of the best work avail-...

ISBN: 9789065440730 / Angielski / Miękka / 446 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Last year I addressed the Netherlands Comparative Law Asso ciation with the following question: 'Does Comparative Law Exist At All?' (My intention then was to flog the dead (?) horse of the merger of comparative law and the sociology of law. ) In presenting this voluminous collection of Netherlands national reports to the eleventh congress of the Internatio nal Academy of Comparative Law I feel my misgivings giving way to the suspicion, that comparative law indeed exists. Of course national reports do not, as such, prove the exist ence of comparative law. It is the general reports together...

Das Subjektive Rechtfertigungselement: Zur Kriminalrechtlichen Relevanz Eines Subjektiven Elements in Der Ebene Des Unrechtsausschlusses -- Auf Der Gr
ISBN: 9783540425113 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 712 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Die Untersuchung thematisiert die kriminalrechtliche Problematik des subjektiven Rechtfertigungselements: die Erforderlichkeits-, die Inhalts- und die Rechtsfolgenfrage. Der vorfindliche Meinungsstand zur Problematik wird umfassend aufgenommen, systematisiert und einer detaillierten Kritik unterzogen. Die Ableitung einer eigenstandigen Losung geschieht auf der Basis einer philosophischen Grundlegung, welche die Normativitat des Subjekts in ihrem unhintergehbaren Horizont sowie dessen Moglichkeitsbedingungen reflexiv erreicht und entfaltet. Die aus dieser Grundlegung - mehrfach vermittelt - zu...
