Legal science, social science, and the problem of competing values
Science du droit, science sociale et le problème des valeurs en conflit Il s’agit, dans cet article, d’un point particulier où les sciences juridiques et sociales se rencontrent. Les disciplines sont toutes deux concernées par les conflits entre valeurs morales. Il y a plusieurs manières dont ce conflit est saisi. L’une s’inspire d’une orientation qui prend comme point de départ la perspective du participant au sein d’un système social ou juridiq…
Freedom and Futures
How should one define the legitimate reach of individuals' institutional obligations in the light of their right to freedom of religion? The most divisive settings for this question involve exclusions from certain jobs and schools. At the same time, some fundamental issues of ethics and law lie in the background. One of the most central concerns choice. On one approach, if there are other sources of work or education that do not make the same dem…

The actual sort of equity that the legal and political system is searching for is not reflected in our major political theories, nor indeed in the official rhetoric of many such systems themselves. The reason for this mismatch has to do with the need to accomodate change – a space o…
Three Faces of Toleration in a Democracy
Le juge, la politique et la neutralité. A propos des travaux de Ronald Dworkin
This essay examines the work of Ronald Dworkin against the background of current debates about the role of courts in England and America. It begins by providing for a French readership an account of the current state of discussion about the role of the judiciary in politics. It considers arguments for and against the notion that the courts can be neutral in political issues, and connects this issue with debates about whether or not courts properl…
