Download or read book Law in the Age of Pluralism written by Andrei Marmor and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2007-12-31 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Law in the Age of Pluralism contains a collection of essays on the intersection of legal and political philosophy. Written within the analytical tradition in jurisprudence, the collection covers a wide range of topics, such as the nature of law and legal theory, the rule of law, the values of democracy and constitutionalism, moral aspects of legal interpretation, the nature of rights, economic equality, and more. The essays in this volume explore issues where law, morality and politics meet, and discuss some of the key challenges facing liberal democracies. Marmor posits that a liberal state must first and foremost respect people's personal autonomy and their differing, though reasonable, conceptions of the good and the just. This basic respect for pluralism is shown to entail a rather skeptical attitude towards grand theories of law and state, such as contemporary constitutionalism or Dworkin's conception of 'law as integrity'. The values of pluralism and respect for autonomy, however, are also employed to justify some of the main aspects of a liberal state, such as the value of democracy, the rule of law, and certain conceptions of equality. The essays are organized in three groups: the first considers the rule of law, democracy and constitutionalism. The second group consists of several essays on the nature of law, legal theory, and their relations to morality. Finally, the collection concludes with essays on the nature of rights, the limits of rights discourse, and the value of economic equality.

Download or read book The Logic of Political Belief written by Ian Adams and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 1989 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is ideology, and what is the scope of its influence? Are all political doctrines ideological? Is there such a thing as a non-political ideology? Can these questions be answered conclusively, and if so by what means? Different conceptions and theories of ideology offer a variety of contradictory answers, resulting in general muddle and confusion. This powerful and original book argues that philosophy alone can give clear and decisive answers to such questions. Its rigorous logical analysis reveals ideology to be a distinctive form of thought with its own particular vocabulary and structure. It is these logical features that define ideology, and not any allegedly necessary connection with social class or fanaticism or even politics. What ideology does necessarily connect with is human action and its moral justification. Understanding the nature of ideological belief goes to the heart of the relationship between theory and practice, and consequently to the way in which human beings understand themselves. The Logic of Political Belief is essential reading for those concerned with political theory, moral philosophy and the social sciences in general. Its outstanding clarity and force of argument will also commend it to all those with an interest in wider political, social and human issues.

Download or read book The Riddle of All Constitutions written by Susan Marks and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2003 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The promotion of democracy is today a familiar feature of foreign policy, and an accepted part of the activities of international organizations. Should international law join in this move to promote democratic political arrangements? If so, on what basis, and with which of the many competingconceptions of democracy? Drawing on an eclectic range of source material, the author examines current debates about the emergence of an international legal 'norm of democratic governance', and considers how proposals for such a norm might be rearticulated to meet some of the concerns to which theygive rise. She also uses these debates to illustrate some more general points about approaches to the study of international law. In doing so, she seeks to defend an approach to international legal scholarship that takes its cue from the tradition of ideology critique.

Download or read book The Political Foundations of Legal Theory written by Simon Zschirnt and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Models of legal change identifying electoral politics, specifically realignments of the political system that replace one political-electoral regime with another, as a key to understanding the evolution of legal thought have been widely accepted. However, the precise causal order of the chain of events linking political and legal change is less clear given the autonomy of the legal profession. This study addresses this question by examining the dynamics of change in the legal marketplace of ideas during three periods of political realignment (the 1980s, the 1930s, and the 1890s). The timing and magnitude of the changes in legal orthodoxy that occurred during each of these periods are measured primarily through analysis of patterns in legal scholarship in elite law reviews that measures the extent to which changes in the amount of scholarship embracing (as well as attacking) legal ideologies associated with new regimes correspond to critical events signaling support for those ideologies by prominent political actors affiliated with those regimes. The results suggest that the relationship between realignments of the political system and change in the legal marketplace of ideas has not been constant over time but rather has been contingent upon the comprehensiveness of the realignment and upon how deeply entrenched the outgoing regime's legal ideology is in the legal marketplace of ideas. In particular, legal ideologies that are affiliated with a regime that is the product of a partial and protracted realignment and which confront a legal marketplace of ideas that remains thoroughly permeated by the outgoing regime's legal ideology are likely to be highly reliant upon overt political support for legitimacy. Conversely, legal ideologies that are affiliated with a regime that is the product of a complete and rapid realignment and which confront a legal marketplace of ideas that is less thoroughly permeated by the outgoing regime's legal ideology are likely to be less reliant upon overt political support for legitimacy.
