Readings in the Philosophy of Law Fourth Edition

Readings in the Philosophy of Law is a concise anthology of central arguments and issues in legal theory. Selections are edited only lightly, allowing readers to grapple with arguments in their original form. Clear, accessible introductions are provided, giving readers an extra "way in" to understanding complex arguments. Particular care is taken to place arguments in historical and social context, with analogies and examples emphasizing the continuing relevance of historical and contemporary arguments. Readings are supplemented by thoughtfully constructed lists of further readings as well as discussion questions designed to invoke deeper reflection on the issues at play. New readings in this edition discuss the duty to obey, intersectional theory, legal pluralism, Indigenous law, and punishment.
