This Short Introduction looks at judging and reasoning from three
perspectives: what legal reasoning has been; what legal reasoning
is from the view of judges and jurists; and what legal reasoning is
from the view of a social scientist epistemologist or humanities
specialist. Geoffrey Samuel begins by identifying the main
institutional focal points of legal reasoning (ius, regulae iuris,
Interpretatio, utilitas and actiones). While examining legal
reasoning from both an internal and external viewpoint, the book
simultaneously incorporates theory and scholarship from a range of
other disciplines including social science and film studies. The
author also includes a discussion of fiction theory, schemes of
intelligibility, and other epistemological issues as well as
standard reasoning devices such as induction, deduction and
analogy. Combining cases and materials with original text, this
unique, concise format is designed to be accessible for students
who are starting out on their law programs, as well as providing
insights for students and researchers who would like to examine
judging and legal reasoning in more depth.
