商品描述

This volume collects six original essays by internationally respected researchers who have devoted themselves to the study of legal obligation. It brings together works that innovatively address key dimensions of the current debates concerning legal obligation from different and, in some cases, even opposing theoretical perspectives. As a result, the collection offers a comprehensive discussion of legal obligation that promises to significantly advance our understanding of the obligatory dimension of law. What specifically connects the contributions gathered here is one common thread: coming to terms with a notion - legal obligation - that is of both practical and theoretical importance. On the one hand, it is widely regarded as a fundamental legal concept by legal practitioners and laypeople alike, as not only judges, prosecutors, lawyers, and juries but also ordinary citizens make extensive use of obligation-related terms and discourses. On the other hand, the notion of legal obligation is of paramount significance for the theory of law. Indeed, even legal theorists who, quite understandably, refuse to reduce the law to a mere obligation-imposing device and opt instead for a view in which the normative dimension of the law also encompasses powers, rights, permissions, privileges and immunities, duly acknowledge the centrality of legal obligation for the understanding and conceptualisation of law. Hence the importance of the treatments presented in this volume.


商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書收錄了六篇原創論文，作者是國際知名的研究者，他們致力於法律義務的研究。這本書匯集了從不同且有時甚至相反的理論觀點出發，創新地探討了當前關於法律義務的重要議題的作品。因此，這本書提供了一個全面的法律義務討論，有望顯著推進我們對法律義務的理解。這些論文的共同點是，它們都在處理一個實踐和理論上都非常重要的概念 - 法律義務。一方面，法律從業人員和普通民眾普遍認為法律義務是一個基本的法律概念，不僅法官、檢察官、律師和陪審團，甚至普通公民也廣泛使用與義務相關的術語和言論。另一方面，法律義務的概念對於法律理論至關重要。事實上，即使是法律理論家，他們理所當然地拒絕將法律僅僅視為一種強制義務的工具，而是選擇一種觀點，認為法律的規範維度還包括權力、權利、許可、特權和豁免，他們也承認法律義務對於理解和概念化法律的重要性。因此，這本書所呈現的論文具有重要意義。
