    726 - 1 596,-

    The Right of Redress advances the discussion of corrective justice in private law by refocusing the reversal of transactions away from the prevailing account of the wrongdoer's remedial duty and toward the right of an individual to obtain redress, which the author terms 'redressive justice'.

  • av Julie (Professor of Legal Philosophy Dickson
    1 556,-

    In Elucidating Law, Julie Dickson addresses questions concerning the methodology of legal philosophy and advocates that legal philosophers should espouse an 'Indirectly Evaluative Legal Philosophy'. This approach can facilitate legal philosophers' understanding of aspects of the nature of law, without regarding law as inherently morally valuable.
