Law's Ideal Dimension. By Robert Alexy. [Oxford University Press, 2021. xiv + 325 pp. Hardback £80.00. ISBN 978-0-19-879683-1.]
statutes appear to be regarded as a judicial creation against which the executive must push back, rather than the opportunity to agree principles that should act as political or legal brakes on governments with strong parliamentary majorities that do not enjoy the support of the majority of the electorate. If the need for a reality check is all readers take away from reading this excellent book, then they will be enriched indeed. We can but hope it also influences those currently contemplating constitutional reform.
期刊介绍:
The Cambridge Law Journal publishes articles on all aspects of law. Special emphasis is placed on contemporary developments, but the journal''s range includes jurisprudence and legal history. An important feature of the journal is the Case and Comment section, in which members of the Cambridge Law Faculty and other distinguished contributors analyse recent judicial decisions, new legislation and current law reform proposals. The articles and case notes are designed to have the widest appeal to those interested in the law - whether as practitioners, students, teachers, judges or administrators - and to provide an opportunity for them to keep abreast of new ideas and the progress of legal reform. Each issue also contains an extensive section of book reviews.
