The Problems of Jurisprudence
Richard A. Posner
Here one of America’s most distinguished scholar-judges shares with us his vision of the law. Posner argues for a pragmatic jurisprudence, one that eschews formalism in favor of the factual and the empirical. Laws, he argues, are not abstract, sacred entities, but socially determined goads for shaping behavior to conform with society’s values.
