Law and Philosophy
The Oxford Handbook of Jurisprudence and Philosophy of Law
The Oxford Handbook of Jurisprudence and Philosophy of Law brings together articles by twenty-six of the foremost legal theorists currently writing, to provide an overview of jurisprudential scholarship. Each article presents an account of the contending views and scholarly debates animating their field of enquiry as well as setting the agenda for further study. This publication covers the fields of legal theory and legal scholarship and philosop…
Natural Law
This article focuses on recent works on natural law theory, particularly those that concentrate on discussing positive law. It opens up with a brief history and overview of natural law theories. The modern legal theorists who identify themselves with the natural law tradition seem to have objectives and approaches distinctly different from those classically associated with natural law. This article deals with two different types of natural law—na…
The Grounds of Welfare
In Fairness versus Welfare, Kaplow and Shavell argue that legal practice and calls for its reform ought to be assessed exclusively by their expected impact on welfare. In particular, they argue that insofar as considerations of fairness are not aspects of an individual's welfare, they have no place to play in the evaluation of the law. In this review essay, I show that this claim is not only inadequately defended in the book, but in fact indefens…
Authority and Reason
This chapter attempts to revisit the relationship between incorporationism and the rule of recognition. In doing so, the chapter reviews various accounts of normative force or authority and outlines an alternative account of the rule of recognition in such a way that it emphasizes the fact that the rule of recognition is a convergent social practice among officials. The chapter also offers an outline of the general account of the authority of rul…
Rational Commitment and Social Justice
Gregory S. Kavka (1947–94) was a prominent and influential figure in contemporary moral and political philosophy. The essays in this volume are concerned with fundamental issues of rational commitment and social justice to which Kavka devoted his work as a philosopher. The essays take Kavka's work as a point of departure and seek to advance the respective debates. The topics include: the relationship between intention and moral action as part of …
Citizenship, the demands of justice, and the moral relevance of political borders
By what standards ought the immigration policies of nations be assessed? Answering this question requires that we draw several preliminary distinctions. In the first place, immigration is a form of access to political borders. Access, in turn, can take many forms, from travel to temporary residence, to permanent residence, and, ultimately, to citizenship. Let us refer to these as various forms of status. Different countries provide different bund…
Justice in Immigration
This book is an interdisciplinary study of the fundamental normative issues underpinning immigration policy. Economists, political scientists and philosophers address issues such as the proper role of the state in supporting a particular culture, the possible destabilization of the political and social life of a country through immigration, the size and distribution of economic losses and gains, and the legitimacy of discriminating against potent…
