Details

This book provides the philosophical foundations for the application of constitutional rights in private law-and more broadly, for social justice-oriented private law reform.

It does this by connecting lessons from political and moral philosophy to those from constitutional and private law theories about their nature and limits. This allows the author to construct a framework for bringing constitutional rights and social justice to bear on private law's ongoing operation. This is an impressively rigorous analytical work, which will be widely welcomed by private lawyers, legal theorists and social rights scholars.
