Sommario/riassunto

"Academic librarians must be educators in their own right, and the key lies in becoming a proactive teacher and collaborator. Reale discusses the changing perception of academic librarians; shows how they can and should assert their rightful place in the learning cycle; looks at how to match teaching goals with academic librarians' missions; advocates for the indispensable roles they should play, including co-collaborator, one-on-one research consultant, and expert-at-large in non-structured spaces; and offers talking points for self-advocacy"--provided by publisher.

Sommario/riassunto

This investigation of the dynamic intertwinement of law and morality argues that theoretical pluralism is better explained once law is accepted as an essentially ambiguous concept. The book develops a robust theory of law that increases our grasp on global legal pluralism and the dynamics of law and also emphasises the theory of legal interactionism. This helps us to understand apparent anomalies of modern law and does justice to the valuable core of truth in natural law and legal positivism.
