This book brings together leading legal theorists to present original philosophical work on the concept of law - the central question of jurisprudence. It covers five broad topics: firstly it addresses debates concerning the methodology of jurisprudence. In Part II it focuses on the notion of a legal system and its coercive nature, while Part III explores the relationships between law and morality, the traditional point of contention between positivist and non-positivist theories of law. Part IV then examines questions regarding law's normative character and relationships with practical reason. Lastly, the final part introduces two novel theoretical approaches to conceptual jurisprudence.
Provides an overview of the cutting-edge work developments about the concept of law and the methodology of conceptual jurisprudence, offering a roadmap of the central debates in the field Contains all-new essays by emerging and established scholars from a range of backgrounds discussing the fundamental issues of conceptual jurisprudence Challenges well-established substantive and methodological theses of conceptual jurisprudence, suggesting new avenues for future work
