Pierre The Anomalist: An Epistemology Of The Legal Closet, Peter Goodrich Apr 2003

Pierre The Anomalist: An Epistemology Of The Legal Closet, Peter Goodrich

Articles

The article examines Pierre Schlag's radical critique of legal reason and the legal academy, which challenges the profession's reliance on abstract norms and universal truths. Schlag's work, often met with hostility, exposes the material and emotional underpinnings of legal discourse, particularly the fear of losing control and status tied to the academy's faith in reason. His critique is situated within broader philosophical traditions that question the limits of reason and the importance of creativity in legal thought. The article also explores how Schlag's ideas intersect with other scholars' work, such as Reginald Leamon Robinson's analysis of legal narrative and identity, …

Dialectic And Revolution: Confronting Kelsen And Gadamer On Legal Interpretation, Hans Lindahl Jan 2003

Dialectic And Revolution: Confronting Kelsen And Gadamer On Legal Interpretation, Hans Lindahl

Cardozo Law Review

This paper examines the general structure and conditions of legal interpretation that arise from confronting Gadamer's philosophical hermeneutics with a determinate conception of legal interpretation suggested by Kelsen's Pure Theory of Law. The Gadamerian question, "What defines legal interpretation as interpretation?", suggests that Kelsen's reference to legal norms as "schemes of interpretation" must be radicalized: a hermeneutic circularity or dialectic is at work in the law, such that the legal interpretation of reality also changes, to a lesser or greater extent, the principle of interpretation - the legal norm. The Kelsenian question, "What defines interpretation as legal interpretation?", suggests …

Reviving Tocqueville's America: The Rehnquist Court's Jurisprudence Of Social Discovery, John O. Mcginnis Mar 2002

Reviving Tocqueville's America: The Rehnquist Court's Jurisprudence Of Social Discovery, John O. Mcginnis

Articles

This Article offers a retrospective on the Rehnquist Court. It argues that the Rehnquist Court has been pursuing a coherent jurisprudence that invigorates decentralization and the private ordering of social norms that Alexis De Tocqueville celebrated in Democracy in America as being the essence of the social order generated by our original Constitution. In four disparate areas-federalism, freedom of association, the religion clauses, and the balance of power between juries and judges-the Court is helping sustain a civil order that bubbles up from state governments or from citizens voluntarily gathered together or randomly selected. The Article is the first to …

Europe In America: Grammatology, Legal Studies, And The Politics Of Transmission, Peter Goodrich Dec 2001

Europe In America: Grammatology, Legal Studies, And The Politics Of Transmission, Peter Goodrich

Articles

This Essay begins by analyzing the way American legal theory has failed to adequately address the challenges and insights of grammatology, the philological critique of the language of law initiated with Jacques Derrida's work Of Grammatology. Professor Goodrich traces the form that this failed confrontation took and then outlines how this philological critique ought to inform a study of law. Importantly for Professor Goodrich, the grammatological approach to law provides ways of analyzing not just the written legal text, but also the effects of new media technologies on the law more broadly. The changes in the law brought about by …

A Response On Cardozo To Professors Kaufman And Schwarz, Richard H. Weisberg Jan 2001

A Response On Cardozo To Professors Kaufman And Schwarz, Richard H. Weisberg

Articles

The article responds to critiques of Benjamin Cardozo's jurisprudence by emphasizing his belief in the dual role of judicial subjectivity and adherence to legal precedent. Cardozo advocated for a balanced approach where judges use their "trained intuition" to seek justice, even when it requires departing from formal rules. The author argues that Cardozo's method is evident in numerous cases and stresses the importance of judicial craftsmanship and language in legal decisions.
