Unreliable Narration in Law and Fiction 法律与小说中的不可靠叙述
Pub Date : 2017-08-01 DOI: 10.1017/cjlj.2017.15
D. Del Gobbo
This article revisits long-standing debates about objective interpretation in the common law system by focusing on a crime novel by Agatha Christie and judicial opinion by the Ontario High Court. Conventions of the crime fiction and judicial opinion genres inform readers’ assumption that the two texts are objectively interpretable. This article challenges this assumption by demonstrating that unreliable narration is often, if not always, a feature of written communication. Judges, like crime fiction writers, are storytellers. While these authors might intend for their stories to be read in certain ways, the potential for interpretive disconnect between unreliable narrators and readers means there can be no essential quality that marks a literary or legal text’s meaning as objective. Taken to heart, this demands that judges try to narrate their decisions more reliably so that readers are able to interpret the texts correctly when it matters most.
本文通过关注阿加莎·克里斯蒂的一部犯罪小说和安大略省高等法院的司法意见,重新审视了关于普通法体系中客观解释的长期争论。犯罪小说和司法意见类型的惯例使读者认为这两种文本是可以客观解释的。本文通过证明不可靠的叙述经常(如果不是总是)是书面交流的一个特征来挑战这一假设。法官和犯罪小说作家一样,都是讲故事的人。虽然这些作者可能希望他们的故事以某种方式被阅读,但不可靠的叙述者和读者之间可能存在解释脱节,这意味着不可能存在标志文学或法律文本意义为客观的基本质量。牢记在心,这就要求法官尽量更可靠地叙述他们的决定,以便读者能够在最重要的时候正确地解读文本。

Revisiting Dworkin’s Philosophy of International Law: Could the Hedgehog Have Done It Any Other Way? 重新审视德沃金的国际法哲学:刺猬还能有其他办法吗?
Pub Date : 2017-03-31 DOI: 10.1017/cjlj.2017.13
Thomas Bustamante
This paper replies to the criticisms raised by Eric Scarffe and Thomas Christiano against Dworkin’s philosophy of international law. While the former argues that Dworkin’s philosophy of international law boils down into some form of political realism, the latter upholds that Dworkin’s attempt to ground the legitimacy of international law on the states’ duty to improve their own legitimacy is insufficient to establish a solid foundation for international obligations. In my response to these critics, I hold that they are based on an uncharitable and implausible reading of Dworkin’s theory of international law, since Dworkin’s theses about the law, whether we are considering “municipal” or “international” law, only make sense if they are understood in an interpretive way. This is, I submit, the only way to avoid turning Dworkin’s assumption of the “unity of value” into an implausible metaphysical theory of natural law. Once we adopt Dworkin’s interpretive attitude, it becomes clear that the route taken by Dworkin in “A New Philosophy for International Law” was the only route that remained available for his interpretive account of political legitimacy and the foundations of law.
本文回应了埃里克·斯卡夫和托马斯·克里斯蒂亚诺对德沃金国际法哲学的批评。前者认为德沃金的国际法哲学可以归结为某种形式的政治现实主义,后者则认为德沃金试图将国际法的合法性建立在各国提高自身合法性的义务之上,这不足以为国际义务奠定坚实的基础。在我对这些批评的回应中,我认为他们是基于对德沃金国际法理论的无情和不可信的解读,因为德沃金关于法律的论点,无论我们考虑的是“国内法”还是“国际法”,只有在以解释的方式理解时才有意义。我认为,这是避免将德沃金的“价值统一性”假设变成难以置信的自然法形而上学理论的唯一途径。一旦我们采用德沃金的解释态度,很明显,德沃金在“国际法新哲学”中所采取的路线是他对政治合法性和法律基础的解释所剩下的唯一可行的路线。

Moral Psychology, Stability and The Law of Peoples 道德心理、稳定与民间法
Pub Date : 2017-03-04 DOI: 10.1017/cjlj.2017.17
David A. Reidy
In this paper I take seriously Rawls’s characterization of his The Law of Peoples as carrying forward the project of Political Liberalism. The latter articulates Rawls’s reworking of the stability argument from Part III of A Theory of Justice to better square it with the permanent fact of reasonable doctrinal pluralism under conditions of freedom and right. As presented in Theory the stability argument is an argument from moral psychology. This moral psychology structures the problem generated by doctrinal pluralism in both Political Liberalism and The Law of Peoples, each of which sets out a consistent principled liberal response to it, the former in the domestic, and the latter in the international, context. Bringing this moral psychology to the surface sheds considerable light on Rawls’s attempt to vindicate the possibility of world hospitable to enduring just and stable constitutional liberal democracies governed by legitimate law.
在本文中,我认真地看待罗尔斯将他的《万民法》描述为政治自由主义的推进。后者阐明了罗尔斯对《正义论》第三部分中稳定性论点的重新设计,以便更好地将其与自由和权利条件下合理的教义多元化这一永恒事实结合起来。正如《理论》中提出的,稳定性论点是来自道德心理学的一个论点。这种道德心理构成了《政治自由主义》和《人民法》中教义多元化所产生的问题,两者都提出了一种一致的原则性自由主义回应,前者在国内,后者在国际背景下。把这种道德心理学带到表面上,可以很好地说明罗尔斯试图证明,世界可能适合由合法法律统治的持久公正和稳定的宪政自由民主国家。

Why Law Matters by Alon Harel 阿隆·哈雷尔《为什么法律很重要?
Pub Date : 2016-02-01 DOI: 10.1017/cjlj.2016.10
J. Weinrib
Alon Harel’s Why Law Matters articulates a powerful and neglected approach for justifying legal institutions. Pushing back against the instrumentalist approach that dominates contemporary legal theory, he argues that legal institutions are not simply tools for realizing extrinsic values, but are themselves constitutive features of a just society. On this view, law is not an instrument for bringing about something that matters; rather, law itself matters and Harel elaborates a series of rich and insightful arguments to explain why. In this brief review, I will sketch the connection between Harel’s non-instrumental methodology and his account of (1) the nature of rights, (2) the distinctiveness of state authority, and (3) the justificatory basis of constitutional governance. I close with some critical comments about the non-instrumental justifications that Harel develops.
阿隆·哈雷尔的《法律为什么重要》阐明了一种为法律制度辩护的有力而又被忽视的方法。他反对主导当代法律理论的工具主义方法,认为法律制度不仅仅是实现外在价值的工具,而且本身就是公正社会的构成特征。根据这种观点,法律不是实现重要事情的工具;相反,法律本身很重要,哈雷尔阐述了一系列丰富而富有洞察力的论点来解释其中的原因。在这篇简短的回顾中,我将概述哈雷尔的非工具方法论与他对(1)权利的本质,(2)国家权力的独特性,以及(3)宪政的正当性基础的阐述之间的联系。最后,我对哈雷尔提出的非工具性论证提出了一些批评。

Refining the Structure and Revisiting the Relevant Jurisdiction of Crimes against Humanity 完善结构,重新审视危害人类罪的相关管辖权
Pub Date : 2016-02-01 DOI: 10.1017/cjlj.2016.9
A. Zysset
In this article, I test predominant normative approaches to CAH against the notion’s deployment in law. Embarking on this cross-disciplinary project is needed because those the predominant literature fail to address (or were just articulated before) the waves of cases brought before international criminal courts throughout the last decade. I start by examining how international criminal courts have specified the core elements of the definition and then assess if and how the predominant philosophical literature can account for it. I then argue that this legal-empirical inquiry leads to both refining the structure and revisiting the relevant jurisdiction of CAH. As far as structure is concerned, I distinguish a third but neglected element in the structure of CAH, which I identify as the preparatory conditions of the crimes (the ‘PCs’). In relying on Joseph Raz’ concept of authority, I argue that reconstructing the PCs help to specify what it is about states that those crimes deeply pervert. While the PCs strikingly mirror the systematic and pre-emptive role of the state, those patterns are established to massively persecute, terrorize and finally odiously attack. As far as jurisdiction is concerned, I infer that the agent of CAH and the state in which those crimes occur become ‘answerable’ to the normative community of responsible states (following Anthony Duff’s accountability model). By establishing international trials, this normative community does justice not only to the victims by proving the crimes but also to the perpetrators by treating them as responsible members.
在本文中,我测试了CAH的主流规范方法,以反对该概念在法律中的部署。开展这一跨学科项目是必要的,因为那些主流文献未能解决(或刚刚阐明)在过去十年中提交给国际刑事法院的案件浪潮。我首先考察国际刑事法院如何明确定义的核心要素,然后评估主流哲学文献是否以及如何解释这一定义。然后,我认为这种法律实证调查既可以完善结构,又可以重新审视CAH的相关管辖权。就结构而言,我区分了CAH结构中第三个但被忽视的元素,我将其称为犯罪的准备条件(PCs)。根据约瑟夫·拉兹的权威概念,我认为重建个人政治委员会有助于明确那些犯罪深深扭曲的国家是什么。虽然个人电脑惊人地反映了国家的系统性和先发制人的作用,但这些模式的建立是为了大规模迫害、恐吓,最后是可恶的攻击。就管辖权而言,我推断CAH的代理人和发生这些罪行的国家对负责任国家的规范社区负有“责任”(遵循安东尼·达夫的问责模型)。通过建立国际审判,这个规范的共同体不仅通过证明罪行而为受害者伸张正义,而且通过将肇事者视为负责任的成员而为他们伸张正义。

Hegel and the Justification of Real-world Penal Sanctions 黑格尔与现实世界刑罚制裁的正当性
Pub Date : 2016-02-01 DOI: 10.1017/cjlj.2016.2
Antje du Bois-Pedain
This article revisits Hegel’s writings on punishment to reconstruct from them a justification for the imposition of real-world penal sanctions. Tracing Hegel’s argumentative path from a bare retributive principle to his mature justification of state punishment, it argues that Hegel offers us convincing reasons for endorsing, in broad shape, the distinctive penal institutions and practices of a modern nation-state. Hegel is also right to stress that punishment is – not merely conceptually, but also in the reality of our social world – a recognition of an offender’s status as a bearer of rights and participant in a system of mutual recognition that allows us to collectively build and maintain an order of freedom. This understanding of punishment sets significant limits to punishment’s permissible forms, particularly – but not only – with regard to the death penalty. By focusing on what it means to honour an offender through punishment and by drawing attention to what legal punishment has in common with reactions to transgressions by the will more generally, I question whether the infliction of penal suffering can, as such, be a legitimate aim of penal agents. In conclusion, I argue that only a commitment to penal minimalism, developable from Hegel’s thought, can give those subjected to real-world penal sanctions a complete answer to the question why they should accept their punishment as justified.
本文将重访黑格尔关于惩罚的著作,从这些著作中重建现实世界刑罚制裁的正当性。追溯黑格尔的论证路径,从纯粹的报应原则到他对国家惩罚的成熟辩护,它认为黑格尔为我们提供了令人信服的理由,以广泛的形式支持现代民族国家的独特刑罚制度和实践。黑格尔还正确地强调,惩罚不仅是概念上的,而且在我们的社会世界的现实中,惩罚是对罪犯作为权利的承担者和相互承认系统的参与者的地位的承认,这种相互承认系统使我们能够共同建立和维护自由秩序。对惩罚的这种理解对可允许的惩罚形式造成了重大限制,特别是——但不仅限于——死刑。通过关注通过惩罚来尊重罪犯意味着什么,以及通过关注法律惩罚与更普遍的意志对违法行为的反应有什么共同之处,我质疑施加刑罚痛苦本身是否可以成为刑罚执行者的合法目标。总之,我认为,只有从黑格尔思想发展而来的刑罚极简主义,才能给那些遭受现实世界刑罚制裁的人一个完整的答案,来回答为什么他们应该接受他们的惩罚是正当的。

“A New Philosophy for International Law” and Dworkin’s Political Realism “国际法新哲学”与德沃金的政治现实主义
Pub Date : 2016-02-01 DOI: 10.1017/cjlj.2016.7
Eric Scarffe
During his career, Ronald Dworkin wrote extensively on an impressive range of issues in moral, political, and legal philosophy, but, like many of his contemporaries, international law remained a topic of relative neglect. His most sustained work on international law is a posthumously published article, “A New Philosophy for International Law” (2013), which displays some familiar aspects of his views in general jurisprudence, in addition to some novel (though perhaps surprising) arguments as well. This paper argues that the moralized account of international law we might have expected is conspicuously missing from this posthumous article; with Dworkin advancing an argument based on a form of political realism instead.
在他的职业生涯中,罗纳德·德沃金在道德、政治和法律哲学方面写了大量令人印象深刻的文章,但是,像他同时代的许多人一样,国际法仍然是一个相对被忽视的话题。他在国际法方面最持久的著作是他死后发表的一篇文章《国际法的新哲学》(2013),其中展示了他在一般法理学方面的一些熟悉的观点,以及一些新颖(尽管可能令人惊讶)的论点。本文认为,在这篇遗作中,我们可能期望的对国际法的道德化描述明显缺失;德沃金提出了一种基于政治现实主义的观点。

Staying Busy While Doing Nothing? Dworkin’s Complicated Relationship with Pragmatism 什么都不做却一直很忙?德沃金与实用主义的复杂关系
Pub Date : 2016-02-01 DOI: 10.1017/cjlj.2016.3
Hillary Nye
Ronald Dworkin was an outspoken critic of pragmatism, and engaged in extensive and at times virulent disagreements with Richard Posner and Richard Rorty. Yet, I argue here, that Dworkin himself had a number of deeply pragmatist commitments. I examine how we can square these two aspects of Dworkin’s thought. I suggest that part of the answer lies in seeing that there are different strands of pragmatism, and that Dworkin falls on the more objective, Peircean side of the divide, while Rorty and Posner belong more in the skeptical, Jamesian camp. But even with this distinction in mind, we should note the substantial overlap between the views of Dworkin and his pragmatist interlocutors—in particular, their anti-archimedeanism and their rejection of metaphysics. Attentiveness to this shared perspective is helpful in illuminating Dworkin’s disagreements with legal positivists. The more foundational divide, I argue, is between analytic legal philosophers who aim to provide an account of the metaphysics of law, and those, like Dworkin and the pragmatists, who reject such a project. I conclude by discussing the implications of Dworkin’s pragmatism for legal philosophy. I argue that it may lead to what some have recently called ‘eliminativism’, and engage with some new and prominent work on this current topic in legal philosophy.
罗纳德·德沃金直言不讳地批评实用主义,并与理查德·波斯纳(Richard Posner)和理查德·罗蒂(Richard Rorty)发生了广泛的、有时甚至是激烈的分歧。然而,我在这里认为,德沃金本人也有许多非常实用主义的承诺。我将研究如何将德沃金思想的这两个方面结合起来。我认为,部分答案在于看到实用主义有不同的流派,德沃金属于更客观的、皮尔式的一方,而罗蒂和波斯纳则更属于持怀疑态度的、詹姆斯式的阵营。但是,即使有了这种区别,我们也应该注意到德沃金和他的实用主义对话者的观点之间有实质性的重叠,特别是他们的反阿基米德主义和对形而上学的拒绝。对这一共同观点的关注有助于阐明德沃金与法律实证主义者之间的分歧。我认为,更根本的分歧在于旨在提供法律形而上学解释的分析性法律哲学家,以及像德沃金和实用主义者这样的人,他们拒绝这样一个项目。最后,我将讨论德沃金的实用主义对法律哲学的影响。我认为,这可能会导致一些人最近所谓的“消除主义”,并参与一些关于法律哲学当前主题的新的和突出的工作。

I conclude by discussing the implications of Dworkin’s pragmatism for legal philosophy. I argue that it may lead to what some have recently called ‘eliminativism’, and engage with some new and prominent work on this current topic in legal philosophy.","PeriodicalId":244583,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Law & Jurisprudence","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125585189","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The division of powers between Federal and State governments and its interpretation by constitutional courts are fundamental elements of a federal system and of Federal-State power relations. The exclusivity or concurrence of powers, supremacy, and the problem of implied powers are some of the issues that appear in the constitutional law of most federations, and indeed stem from the very logic of a federal structure. However, the theoretical literature on federalism has not produced any satisfactory explanation of this logic. This article shows how W.N. Hohfeld’s fundamental legal conceptions may be used to analyse Federal-State relations, and how they are directly applicable in the context of ‘intergovernmental immunities’. The article then elaborates a theory of ‘tertiary’ legal relations, i.e., those arising when the two levels of government act in their regulatory capacity; these relations flow from the triangular nature of the relationship between the two governments and those subject to legislation. The correlations identified between Federal and State powers provide a conceptual framework within which different constitutional questions may be analysed. Adopting Hohfeld’s method of highlighting legal concepts in extracts from judicial decisions, the article uses examples from the case-law of several different federal countries.
联邦政府和州政府之间的权力划分及其宪法法院的解释是联邦制度和联邦-州权力关系的基本要素。权力的排他性或并行性、至高无上和隐含权力的问题是大多数联邦宪法中出现的一些问题,实际上源于联邦结构的逻辑。然而,关于联邦制的理论文献并没有对这一逻辑作出令人满意的解释。本文展示了W.N. Hohfeld的基本法律概念如何用于分析联邦与国家的关系,以及它们如何直接适用于“政府间豁免”的背景。然后,文章阐述了“三级”法律关系理论,即当两级政府以其监管能力行事时产生的法律关系;这些关系源于两国政府和立法主体之间的三角关系。联邦和州权力之间确定的相互关系提供了一个概念框架,在这个框架内可以分析不同的宪法问题。本文采用Hohfeld在司法判决摘要中突出法律概念的方法,以几个不同联邦国家的判例法为例。
