Introducción a Derecho y Autoridad

Abstract

Starting from Rosenkrantz´s main article the volume addresses the complex question in practical philosophy concerning the relation between law and authority. To assert the existence of law implies to assert its binding force, at least pro-tanto. Furthermore, under certain assumptions identified in the paper, the law could be binding even for persons which are victims of some economic and social injustice. Rosenkrantz´s enterprise is philosophical as well as normative. He advances a concept of law which implies the idea of authority, in the sense of something capable to give at least pro tanto reasons for action
