The Return of Christian Common-Law Jurisprudence
Aalten, the Netherlands (PRWEB) October 31, 2006 -- Judicial activism... the application of foreign law... the evaporation of traditional values from the law and from the courtroom... legislation being struck down in the name of supposed rights... the transferral of sovereignty to world courts.
These are all issues which hit us right where we stand. They leave us with a feeling of helplessness. How are we to deal with them?
One thing may reassure us: we are not the first. These issues are not new; in fact, they were already confronted head on more than a hundred years ago by a far-seeing German statesman and legal scholar by the name of Friedrich Julius Stahl. Stahl mapped out a conservative Christian legal philosophy harvesting the fruits of the Western legal tradition. His treatment makes them available to a new generation unschooled in its own inheritance.
Stahl returns us to a common-law-oriented jurisprudence integrating custom and legislation, justice and law, rights and institutions, the received historical law and the needs of the here and now, considerations of utility and God-ordained universal standards. He opens the door to restoring the balance between individual rights and an objective legal order which both conditions and protects those rights. He returns us to a jurisprudence respecting the law of nature and nature's God. He provides a jurisprudence fleshing out the conservative principles first enunciated by Edmund Burke.
Stahl's philosophy of law represents the pinnacle of conservative legal thought. It is the greatest work by a conservative legal scholar ever written.
What is the role of legislation? What is the role of the judge? What is the role of natural law? What is the role of the people? These questions and more are answered in Stahl's Philosophy of Law.
The Philosophy of Law, Stahl's magnum opus, is now for the first time being offered in translation by WordBridge Publishing. The first installment will be the Principles of Law, providing the core principles of law which are fleshed out in the remainder of the series. It will be published Deo Volente on January 1st, 2007.
