Law’s Language Meaning and Normativity Wodak Hardback Cambridge University Press
Laws LanguageMeaning and Normativity\nAuthor(s): Daniel Wodak\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: Cambridge University Press, United Kingdom\nImprint: Cambridge University Press\nISBN-13: 9781009711364, 978-1009711364\nSynopsis\nThe language of law includes normative or prescriptive terms such as 'obligation' and 'permission'. How do we explain the meaning of prescriptive legal language? This has long been regarded as a problem for positivists, since at first glance their view suggests we can derive an ought a legal obligation or right or permission from descriptive social facts alone. This Element outlines what we should want from a semantics of prescriptive legal language, critically evaluates four leading semantic accounts, and argues that legal prescriptivity is not, in the end, a problem for positivists.
