law as possible. Key features of this textbook include:

issues can arise in everyday life a wide range of cases to ground
the theoretical discussion in-depth discussion of the relationship
of law to force, morality and politics, as well as of rights,

arguments for and against the different approaches to the issues
that are raised.
