A Post-Positivist Outlook from the Thistle

Research output: Working paper

Abstract

A discussion of the Scottish dimension in the writings of Neil MacCormick, in particular with regard to his ideas of the post-sovereign state and the institutional nature of law. The paper suggests that MacCormick’s Scottish nationalist politics were vitally linked to his post-positivist jurisprudence.
