Book Description
The seven original essays included in this volume offer a sophisticated perspective on issues about the objectivity of legal interpretation and judicial decision-making. They examine objectivity from both metaphysical and epistemological perspectives and develop a variety of approaches, constructive and critical, to the fundamental problems of objectivity in morality.This is the first volume to consider the intersection between objectivity in ethics and the objectivity in law. It presents a state-of-the-art survey of live issues in metaethics, and examines their relevance to theorizing about law and adjudication.
Review
"...the essays in Objectivity in Law and Morals tackle some of the most interesting and important issues in contemporary legal and moral theory. The collection will be invaluable to anyone who works on issues related to the objectivity of law or morality, as well as to those who simply wish to learn about, or keep up with, the current state of play." -- Ethics
"This is a timely and important volume that no one interested in either metaethics or legal theory should miss." -- William Edmundson, Philosophical Inquiry
"outstanding" -- Philosophy in Review
