Henrik Palmer Olsen, Stuart Toddington

Architectures of Justice (eBook, ePUB)

Legal Theory and the Idea of Institutional Design

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Law can be seen to consist not only of rules and decisions, but also of a framework of institutions providing a structure that forms the conditions of its workable existence and acceptance. In this book Olsen and Toddington conduct a philosophical exploration and critique of these conditions: what they are and how they shape our understanding of what constitutes a legal system and the role of justice within it.
