In an era that seeks to challenge the notion of the universality of
human rights, this thought-provoking book explores their
fundamental nature and considers the work and influence of German
legal scholar and constitutional lawyer Robert Alexy, on
contemporary jurisprudence and European Union law. What is the
justification of balancing versus trading off fundamental rights
against other rights and collective goods? Are there utilitarian
considerations that can limit the normative force of human rights?
Utilising both ''ideal'' and ''critical'' perspectives, this
innovative book focuses on those inevitable questions which lie at
the heart of any contemporary human rights discourse, as the
premise of the dual nature of law is developed. A corresponding
'normative' perspective seeks to investigate the broader legal
domains of the topic. This analytical book will be a key resource
for students and scholars working in the fields of jurisprudence
and legal theory, history and philosophy of law and comparative and
EU law alike.
