The Praise Of Silly: Critical Legal Studies And The Roberts Court, James F. Lucarello
The Praise Of Silly: Critical Legal Studies And The Roberts Court, James F. Lucarello
Touro Law Review
This Comment demonstrates that the Supreme Court is lying to you in its opinions. Why is it lying? The short answer to this question is quite simple: It is being silly.
There is nothing inherently wrong with being silly. In fact, some praise silliness, as a heightened and healthy understanding of the indeterminate world that incorporates our reality.

Nietzsche In Law's Cathedral: Beyond Reason And Postmodernism, John Linarelli
Scholarly Works
Nietzsche had very little to say about law and what he did say is fragmentary and sporadic. Nietzsche's philosophy, however, offers a basis for theorizing about law. I use Nietzsche's important works to interpret two major movements in legal thought. The first part of the paper examines how Nietzsche's philosophy augments our understanding of deontological theories about the law. Nietzsche produced a substantial ethical theory. The second part of the paper examines how Nietzsche's philosophy helps us to understand law and economics.
