Adjudication Is Not Interpretation: Some Reservations About The Law-As-Literature Movement, Robin West Jan 1987

Adjudication Is Not Interpretation: Some Reservations About The Law-As-Literature Movement, Robin West

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

Among other achievements, the modern law-as-literature movement has prompted increasing numbers of legal scholars to embrace the claim that adjudication is interpretation, and more specifically, that constitutional adjudication is interpretation of the Constitution. That adjudication is interpretation -- that an adjudicative act is an interpretive act -- more than any other central commitment, unifies the otherwise diverse strands of the legal and constitutional theory of the late twentieth century.

In this article, I will argue in this article against both modern forms of interpretivism. The analogue of law to literature, on which much of modern interpretivism is based, although fruitful, …


Law And Morality: A Kantian Perspective, George P. Fletcher Jan 1987

Law And Morality: A Kantian Perspective, George P. Fletcher

Faculty Scholarship

The relationship between law and morality has emerged as the central question in the jurisprudential reflection of our time. Those who call themselves positivists hold with H.L.A. Hart that calling a statute or a judicial decision "law" need not carry any implications about the morality of that statute or decision. Valid laws might be immoral or unjust.

On The Indeterminacy Crisis: Critiquing Critical Dogma, Lawrence B. Solum Jan 1987

On The Indeterminacy Crisis: Critiquing Critical Dogma, Lawrence B. Solum

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

Critical legal scholarship challenges the liberal claim that modern western societies are characterized by "the rule of law." The liberal conception of the rule of law, critical scholars contend, serves to mystify and legitimate the legal system and thereby obscure the real issues behind individual cases as well as the real nature of the legal system. Frequently, the claim that legal rules are indeterminate is the starting point for such a critique of the rule of law. What I call the indeterminacy thesis goes roughly like this: the existing body of legal doctrines-statutes, administrative regulations, and court decisions-permits a judge …


Philosophy In Bankruptcy, David G. Carlson Jan 1987

Philosophy In Bankruptcy, David G. Carlson

Articles

The article critically examines Jackson's theories on bankruptcy law, arguing that his "creditor's bargain" model is logically inconsistent and lacks empirical support. It highlights flaws in his assumptions of creditor equality and the justification for bankruptcy discharge, ultimately concluding that his work is ad hoc and unverifiable.
