Description for Law, Narrative and Reality
Hardback. This book contends with the presuppositions behind a received view on law as a systematic solution to social problems. It argues that neither do facts in law represent social reality, nor do norms represent a moral ideal. Representationalism is here put to the test of "the interception hypothesis". Series: Law and Philosophy Library. Num Pages: 238 pages, biography. BIC Classification: LAB. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 15. Weight in Grams: 1170.

Giuffre Editore, 1988, pp. 159-170; 'Justice, Rights, and Hu- man Dignity', in The Windsor Yearbook of Access to Justice, 7, 1987, pp. 46-65; 'Narrative coherence and the guises of legalism', in P. Nerhot (ed.), Law, Interpretation and Reality, ... Read more
