Nova knjiga: R. Guastini, Tumačenje i argumentacija, Naklada Breza, 2023.

U izdanju Naklade Breza objavljena je knjiga Riccardo Guastini, Tumačenje i argumentacija, Zagreb, 2023. Knjigu je s talijanskoga jezika preveo izv. prof. dr. sc. Luka Burazin.

U ovoj se knjizi na sustavan način raspravlja o tumačenju i argumentaciji u području prava. Knjiga je podijeljena u pet dijelova. Prvi dio posvećen je različitim oblicima neodređenosti normativnih dokumenata i tumačenjskoj diskreciji koja iz njih proizlazi. U drugom dijelu autor istražuje raznolikost pravostvarajućih radnji pravnih znanstvenika i sudaca: rješavanje antinomija, popunjavanje praznina, konstruiranje neizraženih normi, konkretiziranje i ponderiranje načela. U trećem dijelu analiziraju se različite vrste rasuđivanja u primjeni prava, a posebno argumentacija tumačenjskih odluka. U četvrtom dijelu autor se bavi tumačenjem ustavnih dokumenata. I na koncu, u petom dijelu, raspravlja se o različitim, u doktrini raširenim opisujućim i normativnim shvaćanjima tumačenja.

Knjigu je moguće kupiti u knjižari Pravnog fakulteta u Zagrebu, Školskoj knjizi, Superknjižari, knjižari Ljevak, knjižari Dominović te online knjižari Naklade Breza (https://naklada-breza.hr/).

Forthcoming Seminar – Dr. Paweł Banaś (Poland)

11 March 2020: Dr. Paweł Banaś (Faculty of Philosophy and Faculty of Law and Administration of the Jagiellonian University, Poland) – Legal Facts – An Introduction to Ontology of Law (Room VI, Trg Republike Hrvatske 14, 10:00 – 11:30 am).

ABSTRACT:

In my presentation I plan to introduce one of the most general problems of contemporary metaphysics, namely “the placement problem”. It amounts to a question of how to locate certain metaphysically suspicious facts within our default naturalistic picture of what exists. Among such metaphysically suspicious facts there are i.e. moral, aesthetics but also legal facts.

There are different placement strategies that aim to solve the placement problem. If one aims to provide a substantial (or non-trivial) answer to the question of how propositions of law can be true (or false) in the first place, it is not enough to say that there are some corresponding legal facts. One must also say how these facts fit with the world and all the restrictions that come with it. And this is what placement strategies are about.

During my presentation I will focus on a concept of a legal person – in order to illustrate how different placement strategies (or metaphysical/ontological theories) may help us understand fundamental categories of a legal discourse.
