Between “Metaphysics Of The Stone Age” And The “Brave New World”: H.L.A. Hart On The Law’S Assumptions About Human Nature, Péter Cserne Dec 2011

Between “Metaphysics Of The Stone Age” And The “Brave New World”: H.L.A. Hart On The Law’S Assumptions About Human Nature, Péter Cserne

Péter Cserne

This paper analyses H.L.A. Hart’s views on the epistemic character of the law’s assumptions about human behaviour, as articulated in Causation in the Law and Punishment and Responsibility. Hart suggests that the assumptions behind legal doctrines typically combine common sense factual beliefs, moral intuitions, and philosophical theories of earlier ages with sound moral principles, and empirical knowledge. An important task of legal theory is to provide a ‘rational and critical foundation’ for these doctrines. This does not only imply conceptual clarification in light of an epistemic ideal of objectivity but also involves legal theorists in ‘enlightenment’ about empirical facts, ‘demystification’ …

Michigan Law Review

In return for a loan, a debtor executed a promissory note to codefendant, Prudential Investment Corporation, and entered into a written agreement to secure this note, designating as collateral a semi-tractor and the proceeds therefrom. Under this type of arrangement, Prudential's security interest would attach automatically to any property received from a sale, exchange, or other disposition of the tractor. Petitioner, Universal C.I.T. Corp., held the conditional sales contract which was executed in financing the purchase of the tractor and was named as loss payee in the insurance contract covering the tractor. When the tractor was totally destroyed, petitioner collected …
