Book description

In Aristotle and Law, George Duke argues that Aristotle's seemingly dispersed statements on law and legislation are unified by a commitment to law's status as an achievement of practical reason. This book provides a systematic exposition of the significance and coherence of Aristotle's account of law, and also indicates the relevance of this account to contemporary legal theory. It will be of great interest to scholars and students in jurisprudence, philosophy, political science and classics.

Reviews

‘… a delightful and rewarding work. Indeed, I recommend this book not just to those interested in Aristotle’s theory of law, but to anyone looking for a lucid overview of many of the scholarly debates about Aristotelian ethics and politics.’

Steven C. Skultety Source: The Review of Politics
