Conceptions and misconceptions of legislation
Conceptions and misconceptions of legislation[electronic resource] /edited by A. Daniel Oliver-Lalana. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2019. - xvi, 335 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm. - Legisprudence library,v.52213-2813 ;. - Legisprudence library ;v.2..

Part I. Ways and models of legislation -- 1 The language of laws in classic Athens -- 2 Misconceptions on legislative quality: an enlightened approach to the drafting of legislation -- 3 Rationality in criminal legislation: rational decision-making in a complex socio-legislative process- 4 Legislation, communication, and authority. How to account for the bindingness of law? -- 5 Legislation and nudging -- 6 Back to regulatory law - 7 Freedom and legislation -- Part II. Legislation in a culture of justification -- 8 Legislation as balancing -- 9 Proportionality, lawmaking, and constitutional democracy -- 10 Legislation and argumentation: a model for the analysis of legislative reasoning -- 11 Legislative deliberation and judicial review -- 12 Special-interest legislation and legislative capture -- Part III. Legisprudence, lawyers, and society -- 13 Legisprudence in legal education and research -- 14 On the legislative gap in the study of law -- 15 Taking legislation seriously: sociological, socio-legal, and social policy arguments.

This volume brings together an international group of legal scholars to discuss different approaches to lawmaking. As well as reflecting the diversity of legisprudence as a re-emerging academic field, it offers a broad overview of current developments and challenges in the theory of legislation, and aspires, moreover, to counterbalance some questionable ideas or misconceptions, widespread among jurists, on what making laws entails. The book is organized into three parts. The first comprises a sample of 'ways and models of legislation', ranging from classic legislative ideals to contemporary forms of regulation. The essays in this part, variances of focus notwithstanding, revolve around the notions of legislative rationality, quality, effectiveness, and legitimacy, which may be regarded as the cornerstones of legisprudence. Interwoven with these notions is another core legisprudential concern: the justification of laws. We address it separately in the next part by exploring the connection between lawmaking, argumentation and constitutional democracy: under the heading 'legislation in a culture of justification', a number of aspects of this connection are tackled that have not been sufficiently considered so far in legisprudential literature, such as the intricacies of legislative reasoning and balancing, or the justificatory problems posed by special-interest legislation. The under privileged status of legisprudence in legal studies and the need for socially attentive and citizen-oriented legislative research come to the fore in the third part of the book which turns to the relationships between 'legisprudence, lawyers, and citizens'. All in all, the thirteen articles gathered here provide a stimulating insight into the theory of legislation, and can hopefully contribute to the reconciliation of the study of law and the study of its making.
