  • Max Webers Rechtssoziologie und die juristische Methodenlehreby Jens Petersen

    De Gruyter 2008; US$ 91.00

    Während über Max Webers Religionssoziologie ganze Bibliotheken geschrieben worden sind, gibt es zu seiner Rechtssoziologie - ungeachtet ihrer von Talcott Parsons herausgestellten Zentralität in Webers Werk - vergleichsweise wenige Bände. Insbesondere ist sein Verhältnis zur juristischen Methodenlehre nahezu unberücksichtigt geblieben, obwohl er als... more...

  • The Kingdom of Fungiby Jens H. Petersen

    Princeton University Press 2013; US$ 29.95

    The fungi realm has been called the "hidden kingdom," a mysterious world populated by microscopic spores, gigantic mushrooms and toadstools, and a host of other multicellular organisms ranging widely in color, size, and shape. The Kingdom of Fungi provides an intimate look at the world's astonishing variety of fungi species, from cup fungi and lichens... more...

  • Nietzsches Genialität der Gerechtigkeitby Jens Petersen

    De Gruyter 2008; US$ 84.00

    The phrase ?Brilliance of Justice? originated from Nietzsche, who admittedly valued this form of brilliance at least as much as all others. Unexpectedly, Nietzsche was neglected by the field of legal philosophy even though he regarded legal philosophy as especially challenging. The author examines Nietzsche?s numerous observations on justice, beginning... more...

  • Die Eule der Minerva in Hegels Rechtsphilosophieby Jens Petersen

    De Gruyter 2010; US$ 98.00

    The preface of Hegel's Philosophy of Right ends with a memorable image: ?When philosophy paints its gray on gray, one form of life has grown old, and with gray on gray it cannot be rejuvenated, but merely known. The owl of Minerva takes its flight only with twilight closing in.? What does this cryptic phrase mean? What is its significance for legal... more...

  • Dante Alighieris Gerechtigkeitssinnby Jens Petersen

    De Gruyter 2011; US$ 56.00

    Dante's Divine Comedy is one of the most important works in the history of world literature. Although the theme of justice is of central importance in this work, studies of its content from a philosophy of law perspective have been thus far primarily conducted by researchers of Romance languages and literature rather than by legal experts. This is... more...

  • Adam Smith als Rechtstheoretikerby Jens Petersen

    De Gruyter 2012; US$ 98.00

    Adam Smith was not just a pioneer of political economy; he was also a moral philosopher who aspired to write a systematic theory of law. Though he never completed the project - he asked the executors of his estate to burn his notes - his major published works contain a multitude of passages from which significant portions of his legal theory can be... more...

  • Die mündliche Prüfung im ersten juristischen Staatsexamenby Jens Petersen

    De Gruyter 2005; US$ 350.00

    ["The oral examination of the first law state examination"] The fact that the existing study literature provides extremely few publications on this subject may be due to the fact that the many different examination conversations are as diverse as the number of examiners. This book opts for the following approach. To start with, some general remarks... more...

    De Gruyter 2012; US$ 420.00

Einige allgemeine Bemerkungen über die mündliche Prüfung und die Situation, in der sich der Kandidat befindet, geben konkrete Handlungsanweisungen für alle Arten der mündlichen Prüfung. Sodann werden einige Prüfungsgespräche... more...

  • Wilhelm von Humboldts Rechtsphilosophieby Jens Petersen

    De Gruyter 2007; US$ 84.00

    Wilhelm von Humboldt?s legal philosophy is much less familiar than his philosophy of language or even his role as an educational reformer. For this purpose the author examines Humboldt?s ?Ideas on an attempt to determine the limits of the effectiveness of the state?. This early work, which is central for political liberalism, was created in an exchange... more...
