A Higher Law: Readings on the Influence of Christian Thought in Anglo-American Law
- Used Book in Good Condition
This second edition is designed to
further the quest to look beyond legal rules and
institutions to the legal philosophies that shaped them. Its
overall purpose and most of the readings remain unchanged,
but some readings have been updated to reflect recent
developments in the law, including critical race theory and
jury reforms. This new edition also addresses current issues
regarding international and constitutional law, considering
the moral and legal arguments regarding preemptive war and
whether transgendered individuals have a fundamental human
right to change their sexual identity on their birth
certificate. This broader focus recognizes that many clashes
over legal worldview are taking place outside the realm of
the common law.
