Studies in Legal Logic is a collection of nine interrelated
papers about the logic, epistemology and ontology of law. All of
the papers were written after the publication of the author s
Reasoning with Rules and supplement the issues addressed therein.
Some of the papers are new; others have been revised substantially
after the publication of their original versions. The emphasis is
on analysis, not on logical technicalities.
Studies in Legal Logic contains chapters about the nature of
norms, the role of coherence in the law, the nature of
defeasibility, the role of dialectics in law and artificial
intelligence, the statics and dynamics of the law, and the
consistency of rules. Moreover, it contains a new, simplified and
yet more powerful version of Reason-based Logic and extensive
examples of how it can be used for the analysis of legal reasoning.
The examples deal with legal theory construction, case-based
reasoning, and judicial proof.
Studies in Legal Logic is primarily intended for researchers and
students in the fields of analytical jurisprudence and artificial
intelligence and law. It should also be of interest for readers
interested in the philosophy of logic and epistemology.
