Beschreibung

InReinventing American Jurisprudence: Law through the Lens of Value, George David Miller and Laura Brown unfurl an original approach to value and an imaginative landscape in philosophy of law. Value essentialism identifies value formations such as a sacred cow and scapegoat tandem and the intensification of oughtness as it approaches sacred zenith values. Readers learn how Occams razor has been responsible for the death of many ideas; how the celebrated Other gains nuance as near and remote; and where a spectralassessment of probability and necessity leads. Analyses of Supreme Court cases grow out in different and exciting directions.Buckwas not about eugenics, but another iteration of the value of efficiency and Yo Wick was decided less on law and more on a justices finding humanity in Chinese laundry mat proprietors.Lochnerinvolved not an ideological binary but three distinct value schemes. Separate but equal was refined as parallelism and exploitative tangents. InBrown, the Fourteenth Amendment took a significant subjective turn. InHeller, the communitarian position of stopping violence before it began could be contrasted with the individualistic position of waiting until you see the whites of their eyes in your bedroom.Citizens United was distilled into the question: was the First Amendment designed to maximize participation or maximize democracy?
