Description
The volume examines law in the tension field between objectivity and power: is law an instrument of the powerful or – on the contrary – an objective reality that limits power? The book deals with this question through an international, interdisciplinary and intradisciplinary approach.
In doing so, it does not only take a theoretical perspective. Instead, it integrates insights from practical, doctrinal contributions as well. In that way, the book follows the idea of Constitutional Pragmatism, sketched out in its introductory chapter: each position in the epistemological dispute about the possibilities and limits of objectivity within the law entails normative implications; thus, the constitutional and doctrinal statements that normally settle normative disputes have to be taken into account when talking about epistemological issues as well.
With contributions by
Franz Bauer, Philip M. Bender, Andreas Engel, Hans Christoph Grigoleit, Martín D. Haissiner, Peter M. Huber, Emilia Jocelyn-Holt, Victor Jouannaud, Ben Köhler, Fabio Núñez del Prado, Santiago Oñate, Alvin Padilla-Babilonia, Jan-Erik Schirmer, Lucia Sommerer, Daniel Wolff and Peter Zickgraf.
