This book debates the issues ranging from theoretical jurisprudential concerns to less abstract constitutional ones, and how our understanding and valuation of the most topical and important issues in law is affected- often substantially - by the vantage or standpoint which we adopt. It provides a host of insights into many of today’s important debates in jurisprudence and constitutional law and explores how judges ought to interpret.
