A landmark work of political and legal philosophy, Ronald Dworkin's
Taking Rights Seriously was acclaimed as a major work on its first
publication in 1977 and remains profoundly influential in the 21st
century. A forceful statement of liberal principles - championing
the legal, moral and political rights of the individual against the
state - Dworkin demolishes prevailing utilitarian and
legal-positivist approaches to jurisprudence. Developing his own
theory of adjudication, he applies this to controversial public
issues, from civil disobedience to positive discrimination.
Elegantly written and cuttingly insightful, Taking Rights Seriously
is one of the most important works of public thought of the last
fifty years.
