In “Legal Realism, Critical Legal Studies, and Dworkin”, realism highlights the challenges and negative qualities that Positivism encompasses, not only through criticism but a detailed explanation of an alternate perspective of how the law should be. Hart then responds to these criticisms that point out underlying flaws in the realists views, which indicate his modern view on Positivism and how it has evolved from a better known classic version used previously. Even though Hart does defend Legal…

Science, or more precisely quantum physics, have introduced persuasive reasons to be skeptical of a dualistic philosophy as being conceivable.

In the chapter of “notes” the author shows his vagueness and aimless scope of the war with reference to the death of the soldier Kiowa.
