- What principal concerns and central puzzles will animate future philosophers of law?
- What methods and resources will the next generation of legal philosophers draw and rely on?
- This collection answers these questions by offering 11 new, cutting-edge essays, by leading young scholars. Each chapter challenges long-held assumptions in the field, and thereby presents brand new research paradigms for the discipline. The chapters are divided under the following five themes:
- 1) Methodology and Metatheory
- 2) Reasoning and Evaluating
- 3) Values and the Moral Life
- 4) Institutions and the Social Life
- 5) The International and Global Dimension

A substantial introduction describes each contribution and discerns general themes that will shape the future of legal philosophy. Book jacket.
