The first translation into English was notably poor and abridged, and it misrepresented Ross's views. Translated from scratch and in full length from the original Danish, this new critical edition casts light on Ross's work and resituates it firmly in the context of current debates in the field. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eRoss was, in H.L.A. Hart's words, 'the most acute and best-equipped philosopher' of Scandinavian legal realism.\u003cem\u003e On Law and Justice\u003c\/em\u003e provides a comprehensive outline of his legal realist position, offering a consistently empirical research programme that simultaneously recognizes the distinctly normative character of law. Ross's legal realism avoids the standard critiques against behaviourist reductionism while still remaining categorically distinct from legal positivism and natural law.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alf Ross, Uta Bindreiter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0198716109\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780198716105\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/20\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 568\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.50w x 1.70d","brand":"Alf Ross","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44119425483007,"sku":"9780198716105","price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_11949e03-4ba3-4869-8ffa-0e631d104696.jpg?v=1687409276","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/on-law-and-justice-alf-ross-9780198716105","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
