The Role Of Well-Being, Joseph Raz
The Role Of Well-Being, Joseph Raz
Faculty Scholarship
"Well-being" signifies the good life, the life which is good for the person whose life it is. I have argued that well-being consists in a wholehearted and successful pursuit of valuable relationships and goals. This view, a little modified, is defended , but the main aim of the article is to consider the role of well-being in practical thought.

The suggestion is indifferent to who cares …
Incorporation By Law, Joseph Raz
Incorporation By Law, Joseph Raz

Several decades ago, Martin Luther King Jr., in a groundswell of Gandhian activism, raised that Gandhian understanding of justice to a position of near dominance in Western thought. It may be no coincidence that both King and Gandhi suffered the same fate for their troubles. Conventional …
Philosophy Of Contract Law, Jody S. Kraus
Philosophy Of Contract Law, Jody S. Kraus
Faculty Scholarship
This article identifies a set of methodological commitments that help to explain the methodological differences between autonomy (deontic) and economic contract theories that have opposing views about the nature of law and legal theory. It begins with the discussion of the four methodological issues that divide contemporary autonomy and economic theories of contract. The dispute over the relative priority of the normative and explanatory enterprises of contract theory may simply reflect the different theoretical goals of deontic and economic theorists. These intellectual origins may explain not only the different priorities of deontic and economic contract theories, but their different conceptions …
