Description

The authors delve into the intricate relationship between law and morality, exploring how legal norms acquire their authority and significance within society. By employing a genealogical approach, they unravel the historical and philosophical underpinnings of legal normativity. Through this lens, they investigate the evolution of legal concepts and their impact on collective behavior.

Readers are invited to consider how legal principles emerge not merely as arbitrary rules but as deeply rooted societal constructs shaped by historical context and cultural values. This analytical journey challenges conventional views, prompting a reevaluation of the sources of legal credibility and the role of ethical considerations in the application of law.
