Analyzing Law (New Essays in Legal Theory)

Analyzing Law offers an important selection of the most influential and challenging work now being done in legal theory. The contributors, who include Guido Calabresi, Jules Coleman, Martha Fineman, Frederick Schauer, Jeremy Waldron, and Robin West, cover topics ranging from the problem of objectivity and the nature of rules to the challenges of feminism and Critical Race Theory. Some of the essays take as their starting point Jules Coleman's important contributions to analytical jurisprudence and the philosophical foundations of the common law: and the collection includes an extended reply by Professor Coleman.
