contributors Examines hot topics such as the tension between

This handbook addresses legal reasoning and argumentation from a
logical, philosophical and legal perspective. The main forms of
legal reasoning and argumentation are covered in an exhaustive and
critical fashion, and are analysed in connection with more general
types (and problems) of reasoning. Accordingly, the subject matter
of the handbook divides in three parts. The first one introduces
and discusses the basic concepts of practical reasoning. The second
one discusses the general structures and procedures of reasoning
and argumentation that are relevant to legal discourse. The third
one looks at their instantiations and developments of these aspects
of argumentation as they are put to work in the law, in different
areas and applications of legal reasoning.

Reasonableness is at the centre of legal debate, both in academic
circles and in practice. This unique reference work adopts an
interdisciplinary perspective, merging jurisprudence, legal theory,
political philosophy and the different branches of law. All aspects
relating to reasonableness and law are addressed by the most
prominent scholars in the field. In the first part of the book, the
focus is on jurisprudential analyses of the concept of
reasonableness and on its moral, political and constitutional
implications. In the second part, reasonableness is examined in the
different fields of law like Public, Private and International Law.
Here in more detail the practical consequences of reasonableness
are worked out, making this work of interest to practitioners as
