Ethical Rationalism and the Law

What role does reason play in determining what, if anything, is morally right? What role does morality play in law?

The contributors then take the debate beyond the traditional concerns of legal theory into areas such as the relationship between morality and international law, and the impact of ethically controversial medical innovations on legal understanding
