Details

This book is an innovative and engaging way of reassessing the landmark contributions to scholarship and their potential for future development by focusing on the ‘Leading Works’ of this important discipline. It is a collection of essays by leading and emerging scholars in the field. Each contributor has been invited to select and analyse a ‘leading work’, a publication which has for them shed light on the way that the Philosophy of Law has developed. The book also includes a specially written Introduction which critically reflects upon the development of the Philosophy of Law and its likely future developments in light of the reflections by contributors on their chosen leading works.

The book will be a valuable resource for students, researchers and academics working in Legal Philosophy and Jurisprudence.
