Jr. Samuel Zinaich

Analytical Legal Naturalism

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book argues that analytical legal naturalism, which avoids the arbitrary principles associated with legal positivism and the odd properties associated with natural law, is a superior alternative for solving hard legal cases, where no close precedent arises or where conflicting precedents seem relevant.
