This edited collection commences with a comprehensive introduction which establishes the character of Kelsen’s critical engagement as a general critique of natural law combined with a more specific critique of representative thinkers of the Natural Law Tradition. The subsequent chapters are then devoted to a detailed analysis of Kelsen’s engagement with prominent theorists from the Natural Law Tradition. The volume concludes with an exploration, focusing upon the delineation of a non-positivist legal theory in the debate between Robert Alexy and Joseph Raz, of the continued presence of Kelsenian legal positivism in contemporary legal theory.Studies in Moral Philosophy14.Natural lawCongressesLegal positivismCongressesNatural lawLegal positivism340.112Langford PeterBryan IanMcGarry John(Law teacher),Edge Hill University,Austrian Cultural Forum (London, England),NL-LeKBNL-LeKBBOOK9910816390903321Hans Kelsen and the natural law tradition4036218UNINA
