- Cíle předmětu
- Every legal scientist should know what he wants to research and how he wants to research it. The course " Philosophy of Science and Legal Science" focuses on selected methodological schools of jurisprudence. This course will give a deep insight into the methodological plurality of jurisprudence. Close attention will be paid to so-called formalist theories of legal reasoning and their subsequent criticism. The main objective of this course is to develop the student's ability to ask the right questions about assumptions, objectives and consequences of various legal theories. Ultimately, students should also understand that there is no value-free jurisprudence.
