The Autonomy of Law: Essays on Legal Positivism
Robert P. George
Abstract
This collection of original essays from distinguished legal philosophers offers a challenging assessment of the nature and viability of legal positivism, an approach to legal theory that continues to dominate contemporary legal theoretical debates. To what extent is the law adequately described as autonomous? Should legal theorists maintain a conceptual separation of law and morality?
Keywords: legal positivism, legal theory, legal theorists, morality, law, conceptual separation
