This book is a strikingly original contribution to the traditional issue of the nature of law and, more important, a strikingly original account of the role of law in an ethical life. This original essay dares to apply an ethical perspective to law (in contrast to the prevailing moral and positivist tendencies). While influenced by Roman law and Aquinas, it goes beyond traditional legal theory (understood in a modern Thomist perspective) and it applies legal theory to the most common riddles of constitutional practice. Its originality is that instead of the usual moral law: positive law dualism he brings in the personal perspective turning the dual relation into a triadic one. In this excellent and interesting study Gergely Deli reminds us that we should all strive to live worthwhile and fulfilling lives: and that one primary purpose of law is to guide and assist us in doing so. Well-constructed legal systems help us to fulfill the command 'honeste vivere,' by supporting the ethical choices that give value and meaning to our lives"--Back cover. 650 0 $a Law and ethics. 650 0 $a Law $x Moral and ethical aspects. 650 0 $a Law $x Philosophy. 650 7 $a Law and ethics. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00993904 650 7 $a Law $x Moral and ethical aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00993785 650 7 $a Law $x Philosophy. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00993788 700 1 $a NeÌmeth, AÌgnes, $e translator. 700 1 $a SzaÌntoÌ, Judit, $e translator. 700 1 $a TakaÌcs, Orsolya, $e translator. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220526015602.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2EB0E0CC86E611EB80D4A9DB35ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
