In recent years we have witnessed major developments in
philosophical inquiry concerning the nature of law and, with the
continuing development of international and transnational legal
institutions, in the phenomenon of law itself. This volume gathers
leading writers in the field to take stock of current debates on
the nature of law and the aims and methods of legal philosophy. The
volume covers four broad themes. The essays within the first theme
address and develop the traditional debates between legal
positivism, natural law theory, and Dworkinian interpretivism.
Papers within the second theme focus on the power of coercion,
often overlooked in contemporary legal philosophy. The third set of
papers addresses the aims and methods of legal theory, and the role
of conceptual analysis. The final section explores new methods and
issues in the subject, and offers fresh starting points for future
work in the field. Gathering many leading and up-and-coming writers
in the subject, the volume offers a snapshot of the best current
work in general jurisprudence.
