  • Natural Law in Court

    A History of Legal Theory in Practice

    by R. H. Helmholz ...
    The theory of natural law grounds human laws in the universal truths of God’s creation.

    Edited by Mauro Bussani, Ugo Mattei ...
    Series series Cambridge Companions to Law
    We can only claim to understand another legal system when we know the context surrounding the positive law in which lawyers are trained.

It is only when we ... Read more

  • Law and the Limits of Reason

    by Adrian Vermeule ...
    Human reason is limited. Given the scarcity of reason, how should the power to make constitutional law be allocated among legislatures, courts and the executive, and how should legal institutions be designed? In Law and the Limits of Reason, Adrian Vermeule denies the widespread view, stemming from Burke and Hayek, that the limits of reason counsel in favor of judges making "living" constitutional ...

  • Human Dignity and Law

    Legal and Philosophical Investigations

    by Stephen Riley ...
    This book argues that human dignity and law stand in a privileged relationship with one another. Law must be understood as limited by the demands made by human dignity. Conversely, human dignity cannot be properly understood without clarifying its interaction with legal institutions and legal practices. This is not, then, a survey of the uses of human dignity in law; it is a rethinking of human ... Read more
