This volume highlights important aspects of the complex
relationship between common language and legal practice. It hosts
an interdisciplinary discussion between cognitive science,
philosophy of language and philosophy of law, in which an
international group of authors aims to promote, enrich and refine
this new debate. Philosophers of law have always shown a keen
interest in cognitive science and philosophy of language in order
to find tools to solve their problems: recently this interest was
reciprocated and scholars from cognitive science and philosophy of
language now look to the law as a testing ground for their theses.
Using the most sophisticated tools available to pragmatics,
sociolinguistics, cognitive sciences and legal theory, an
interdisciplinary, international group of authors address questions
like: Does legal interpretation differ from ordinary understanding?
Is the common pragmatic apparatus appropriate to legal practice?
What can pragmatics teach about the concept of law and pervasive
legal phenomena such as testimony or legal disagreements?
