But it is no hermetic inquiry. Law depends on, and has consequences for, politics and morality. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eThe Germ of Justice\u003c\/em\u003e, one of the subject's prominent exponents disentangles these relationships. Professor Leslie Green probes three clusters of problems: the nature of law as a social construction, the relations between law and morality, and the demands that law makes of its officers and its subjects. Along the way, Green asks what jurisprudence can learn from the social sciences, how it is related to the humanities, how it might make progress, and why it is of value. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis wonderful and accessible text engages leading theories of law and key works of Hume, Kelsen, Hart, Dworkin, Finnis, and Raz. \u003cem\u003eThe Germ of Justice\u003c\/em\u003e is a must-have work in contemporary jurisprudence and a powerful contribution to political theory and moral philosophy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Leslie Green\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0192886940\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780192886941\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 11\/17\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 416\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.30h x 5.70w x 1.70d","brand":"Leslie Green","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44245159411967,"sku":"9780192886941","price":105.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c1bbe69b-16f0-46f5-97f0-3ea107a5e745.jpg?v=1693926472","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-germ-of-justice-green-9780192886941","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
