This second volume of the Vienna Lectures on Legal Philosophy
series presents 11 chapters which are dedicated to normativist and
anti-normativist approaches to law. The book focuses on the
question: What is law? Is it a set of obligations imposed on courts
and officials to guide their conduct and to assess the conduct of
others? Or is it the result of settlements reached by opposing
sides that accept arrangements and understandings to sustain
peaceful cooperation? If law is the former its significance and
meaning are independent of a shifting constellation of forces; if
it is not, then what the law says depends on the relative power and
prestige of the actors involved. With contributions from some of
the leading scholars in the field, the collection presents a
balanced and nuanced assessment of what is perhaps the most
controversial debate in contemporary legal philosophy today.
