The Authority of Law in Recent Catholic Political Philosophy

Mar 02

This event has passed.

Cosponsored by the Center for Law, Philosophy and Human Values

This lecture considers several recent attempts by Catholic political philosophers working in the natural law tradition to give an account of law’s authority, and their success in answering some recent criticism. The difficulties in providing a successful natural law account of law’s authority gives us reason to rethink the sort of explanatory ambitions of new natural law theorists.
