    The Selected Correspondence of Learned Hand

  • 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. Until very recently, lawyers in the Western tradition studied natural law as part of their training, and the task of the judicial system was to put its tenets into concrete form, building an edifice of positive law on natural law’s foundations. Although much has been written about natural law in theory, ... Read more

    Why We Follow Destructive Bosses and Corrupt Politicians--and How We Can Survive Them

    by Jean Lipman-Blumen ...
    Toxic leaders--such as Ken Lay at Enron or Al Dunlap ("Chainsaw Al") at Sunbeam, or Slobodan Milosevic in Yugoslavia--have always been with us, and many books explain what makes them tick. But in The Allure of Toxic Leaders, Jean Lipman-Blumen explains what makes the followers tick, exploring why we tolerate--and remain steadfastly loyal to--leaders who are destructive to their organizations, ...

    by Mairaj U. Syed ...

    Heroes, Soldiers, Minimalists, and Mutes

    by Cass R. Sunstein ...
    Series series Inalienable Rights
    Since America's founding, the U.S. Supreme Court had issued a vast number of decisions on a staggeringly wide variety of subjects. And hundreds of judges have occupied the bench. Yet as Cass R. Sunstein, the eminent legal scholar and bestselling co-author of Nudge, points out, almost every one of the Justices fits into a very small number of types regardless of ideology: the hero, the soldier, the ...

  • Legalism

    Community and Justice

    Edited by Fernanda Pirie, Judith Scheele ...
    'Community' and 'justice' recur in anthropological, historical, and legal scholarship, yet as concepts they are notoriously slippery. Historians and lawyers look to anthropologists as 'community specialists', but anthropologists often avoid the concept through circumlocution: although much used (and abused) by historians, legal thinkers, and political philosophers, the term remains strikingly ...
