In the decades following the Civil War, the founding generation of professional legal scholars in the United States drew from the evolutionary social thought that pervaded Western intellectual life on both sides of the Atlantic. Their historical analysis of law as an inductive science rejected deductive theories and supported moderate legal reform, conclusions that challenge conventional accounts of legal formalism. Unprecedented in its coverage and its innovative conclusions about major American legal thinkers from the Civil War to the present, the book combines transatlantic intellectual history, legal history, the history of legal thought, historiography, jurisprudence, constitutional theory and the history of higher education.Cambridge historical studies in American law and society.LawUnited StatesPhilosophyHistory19th centuryLawUnited StatesInterpretation and constructionHistory19th centuryLawStudy and teachingUnited StatesHistory19th centuryLawPhilosophyHistoryLawInterpretation and constructionHistoryLawStudy and teachingHistory349.7309/034HIS036040bisacshRabban David M.1949-1711895UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910812473303321Law's history4103557UNINA
