Ronald Dworkin on Law as Integrity: Rights as Principles of Adjudication

Edwin Mellen Press (1996)
  Copy   BIBTEX

Abstract

A full discussion on his understanding of rights as "trump cards" which privilege the individual claim over the group policy; the critique of legal positivism; the history of a legal institution according to the analogy of a chain novel; and the insistence upon a theory of adjudication that is both constructive and yet faithful to the deepest intentions of legal documents.
