| Summary: | "Gathered under the title The Just, the essays represent a sustained reflection on the relation between the concept of the judicial - as imbedded in written laws, tribunals, judges, and verdicts - and the philosophical concept of right, situated between moral theory and politics.

In a philosophy of right, on the other hand, the leading theme is peace."--BOOK JACKET. |
