So far, I have developed reason structuralism philosophically and showed how it can naturally accommodate reasoning with reasons. In this chapter, I show how the formal approach developed in the preceding chapter can tackle meta-reasons, or reasons about reasons, by discussing some issues in the law. In particular, I will deal with the concept of precedential constraint in common law via the concept of reason as captured in my formal account.

(Meta)Reasons in the Law

  • Federico L. G. Faroldi

摘要

So far, I have developed reason structuralism philosophically and showed how it can naturally accommodate reasoning with reasons. In this chapter, I show how the formal approach developed in the preceding chapter can tackle meta-reasons, or reasons about reasons, by discussing some issues in the law. In particular, I will deal with the concept of precedential constraint in common law via the concept of reason as captured in my formal account.
