Ronald Dworkin on Jurisprudence - Dictionary of Arguments

Brocker I 599
Jurisdiction/Dworkin: Responsible judges, according to Dworkin, do not succumb to the temptation to seek reasons and points of view outside the law just because so far no article of the constitution, no legal text and no explicit judgment provide authoritative information on a difficult case. See Legal positivism/Dworkin
, Law/Dworkin, Law/Hart.
Brocker I 600
According to Dworkin, the judge's task is not fundamentally different from that of a political philosopher who wants to explain and justify his own political order at the same time. For this, however, the interpreter has to find a legal system that is accessible to a reasonable reconstruction at all. >Interpretation/Dworkin.
