Natural Law Today: The Present State of the Perennial Philosophy
explains and defends various aspects of traditional natural law
ethical theory, which is rooted in a broad understanding of human
nature. Some of the issues touched upon include the relation of
natural law to speculative reason and human ends (teleology), the
relationship between natural law and natural theology, the
so-called naturalistic fallacy (deriving "ought" from "is"), and
the scope of natural knowledge of the precepts of the natural law,
as well as possible limits on it. It also takes up certain
historical and contemporary questions, such as the various stances
of Protestant thinkers toward natural law, the place of natural law
in contemporary U.S. legal thought, and the relationship between
natural law and liberal political thought more generally. It brings
together a number of the leading exponents of a more traditional or
classical form of natural law thought, who claim to root their
arguments within the broader philosophy of Thomas Aquinas more
deeply than other major representatives of the natural law
tradition today.
