 | | [Jurisprudence] Believing, I suppose, that the best defense is an offense, Dennis Patterson replies to my observation about the current state of the discourse known as ‘analytic jurisprudence’ by challenging me to provide an argument in favor of one alternative I suggested: social philosophy as informing theories about the concept of (and nature of) law. |
 | | While jurisprudes are increasingly recognizing the deficiencies and confusions of their so-called ‘methodologies’ they are nonetheless united in their commitment to fight off any attempt to look to other disciplines for methodological, and substantive, guidance. |
 | | While it is becoming increasingly en vogue to bemoan the death of jurisprudence, the problem is with the communicative action, the pattered interactions of the field: the exclusion of those who engage in philosophy other than moral (or political) from the conferences, syllabi, journals and teaching posts, and the absolute abhorrence of interdisciplinarianism. |
