Bøger af Louis E. Wolcher

Places the idea of law's ultimate task in the context of what actually happens when people seek to do justice and enforce legal rights in a world that is inflected by the desperation and suffering of the many. This book traces the rule of law all the way down to its most fundamental level: universal human suffering.

Bringing an Eastern sensibility into contact with three most important themes in Western philosophy, investigates three important philosophers: Martin Heidegger - on being, Emmanuel Levinas - on ethics, and Ludwig Wittgenstein - on language. It is for philosophers and legal theorists, and for those who are interested in Zen Buddhism.
