Oxford Legal Philosophy

The Principle of Legality reopens the question of what happens when statutory interpretation overrides common law rights and principles. Drawing on the philosophy of language and general jurisprudence, it demonstrates that judges, when invoking the 'principle of legality', are in fact engaging in profound moral reasoning.

Crummey C: The Principle of Legality

The Principle of Legality

A Moral Theory

Value and Circumstance revisits the most prominent political and moral ideals of the twentieth century: justice, consent, equality, and law. It asks what they tell us about the connections between the ideal and the everyday, between enduring moral values and the fragile contingencies of time and place.

Value and Circumstance

In Elucidating Law, Julie Dickson addresses questions concerning the methodology of legal philosophy and advocates that legal philosophers should espouse an 'Indirectly Evaluative Legal Philosophy'. This approach can facilitate legal philosophers' understanding of aspects of the nature of law, without regarding law as inherently morally valuable.

The Right of Redress advances the discussion of corrective justice in private law by refocusing the reversal of transactions away from the prevailing account of the wrongdoer's remedial duty and toward the right of an individual to obtain redress, which the author terms 'redressive justice'.

This book makes a systematic defence of the Coercion Thesis in law, arguing that coercion or enforcement mechanisms are not only a necessary feature of legal systems, but a conceptually necessary feature of legal systems.

This book pinpoints and addresses a number of theoretical problems at the heart of property theory, exploring the bundle of rights picture of property, the Hohfeldian theory of jural relations, the form and justification of property rights, and the ever-vexed question of property rights in land.

Property Rights: A Re-Examination

What are the moral and legal issues of contemporary warfare? Drawing on cutting-edge debates in moral philosophy, this book proposes how the laws of war can be evaluated, criticized, and reformed, making a valuable and timely contribution to a pressing international debate.

Law and Morality at War

This work offers a new theory of what it means to be a legal person and suggests that it is best understood as a cluster property. The book explores the origins of legal personhood, the issues afflicting a traditional understanding of the concept, and the numerous debates surrounding the topic.

A Theory of Legal Personhood

This book offers an analysis of the state as a moral and legal wrongdoer that draws upon the philosophy of corporate agency and collective responsibility. It examines how the state can be held morally to account for its actions, and what forms of legal liability might be developed for state wrongdoing.

States as Wrongdoers

The laws are not silent in war, but what should they say? What is the moral function of the law of armed conflict? Should the law protect civilians who do not fight but help those who do? Should the law protect soldiers who perform non-combat functions or who may be safely captured? How certain should a soldier be that an individual is a combatant rather than a civilian before using lethal force? What risks should soldiers take on themselves to avoid harming civilians? When do inaccurate weapons become unlawfully indiscriminate? When does 'collateral damage' to civilians become unlawfully disproportionate? Should civilians lose their legal rights by serving, voluntarily or involuntarily, as human shields? Finally, when should killing civilians constitute a war crime? These are the questions that Law and Morality at War answers, contributing to a cutting-edge international debate. 

Drawing on the concepts and methods of contemporary moral and legal philosophy, the book develops a normative framework within which the laws of war and international criminal law can be evaluated, criticized, and reformed. While several philosophical works critically examine the moral status of civilians and combatants, this book fills a gap, offering both an account of the laws of war and war crimes, and proposing how the law could be improved from a moral point of view.

This book is an attempt to provide a philosophical answer to the simple question, "What is the law?" as well as address the various debates this question has spawned. Along the way, it develops a unique position within analytic jurisprudence by carefully distinguishing between a theory of the nature of a legal system and a theory of the nature of legal content (that is, of individual laws). Finally, it applies the framework established in the first part of the book to two substantive areas within legal theory: legal reasoning and international legal systems. The result is a unique introduction to the philosophy of law, one that presents and tests a theory of analytic jurisprudence, while it introduces students and others to this sub-field of philosophy.

It explains and clarifies for students the views of the most significant scholars in the philosophy of law—those of H.L.A. Hart, Hans Kelsen, Joseph Raz, Ronald Dworkin, and John Finnis—and offers a critique of each. This approach should appeal to all types of philosophers--students and scholars alike--who are wary of wading into the field of legal theory as well as philosophers of law who wouldn’t find useful or interesting a mere survey of the field.

Reconstructing Parentage

Social Justice

This book takes as its focus the judicial apparatus; and, more specifically, the concept of the political or show trial. The book considers the different ways in which a politics of resistance is enabled in the courtroom: as it uncovers a performative logic that contingently conditions, and thus breaks open, law’s otherwise closed normativity.

Law and Resistance

This book is an insightful, thought-provoking study of one of the world's most important courts. There is no doubt that the European Court of Justice has had a transformative effect on EU Law, but not without controversy. 

This book explores these criticisms, asking if concerns over judicial activism, unconventional interpretative methods, conflicts with national courts and over-reach are justified. Drawing on the expertise of leading commentators in their sectors, its ambitious scope explores the question from across the spectrum of EU Law. Its analysis includes the political dimension, giving the fullest understanding of the environment in which the Court and its judgments have operated.

The European Court of Justice and its Critics

How can our criminal law retain legitimacy in an era of growing awareness about the complexities of human vulnerability and the far-reaching harm of punitive attitudes? The Boundaries of Blame makes a fresh contribution to the evolving scholarship on the relationship between criminal responsibility and social justice. It challenges the constricted view of personhood underpinning doctrines of responsibility, encouraging new conversations about longstanding questions on the role of circumstances like deprivation and trauma in excusing wrongdoing. Testing entrenched boundaries can provoke resistance, but the book argues that pushing past these limits is essential to fostering a more just framework of state blame in our present time and place. To achieve this objective, Kennefick proposes a bold yet pragmatic response in the form of a Universal Partial Defence, grounded in the Real Person Approach - a blueprint that offers a practical and humane pathway towards a fairer measure of criminal accountability.

Brings social justice to criminal responsibility through a 'real person' approach to blaming people. It is essential reading for researchers and scholars of criminal law and justice across common law jurisdictions. It appeals to general readers interested in reform, proposing how law can blame in a fairer way.

Hart Studies in Constitutional Law

This book provides the most complete history of the Regency Acts and Counsellors of State ever undertaken. Using documents from the National Archives, the book outlines why the position was created in the early 20th century, how the question of a regency and Counsellors of State became entangled with the abdication of Edward VIII, and how the position became a crucial feature of the reign of Elizabeth II. Counsellors of State were a little-known part of the constitutional monarchy. Yet, recently, the role has attracted public scrutiny as Princes Harry and Andrew remain Counsellors despite their withdrawal from public life. Counsellors can deputise for the monarch when they are overseas or unwell, ensuring that the monarchy can continue to fulfil its constitutional functions. The book explains the role of Counsellors and the legal and practical problems surrounding their functions. It also discusses the problems with how the Regency Acts provide for a regent. The reign of Charles III raises important questions both for the present and the future. The King is known to favour a "slimmed down", more flexible, modern monarchy. Reforming the positions of Counsellors of State and regent could be part of this. Should the position be used to smooth the transition to William V? Should the British monarchy follow examples from other monarchies in Europe and allow a monarch to retire with the heir to the throne acting as regent? The book concludes with suggested reforms to ensure that the modern monarchy continues to fulfil its constitutional duties.
