- Double-weighted statement
- This book is submitted for consideration as a double-weighted output. Its a wide-ranging work of legal theory which considers and integrates insights from extensive literatures on political philosophy, law, and economics. It applies the contractarian model developed in the first half of the book to a variety of issues, both legal and philosophical, including the analysis of freedom, the problem of political obligation, the justification of property rights, the philosophical foundations of tort, contract and criminal law, the economic analysis of company law, intellectual property law, employment law and planning law, and the justification and limits of democracy and federalism.
