Abstract:
In his book, Damiano Canale assumes that the vocabulary of the philosophy
of law best fits an explanation of the nature of law, to deal particularly with the issue of
conflict. From conceptual analysis to the philosophy of action, law is a planning activity
that coordinates our behavior in order to resolve doubts and disagreements about the
moral matters that affect our communal life. The text thereby provides a new perspective
for legal philosophy, a perspective that is alternative to both naturalized jurisprudence and
the Oxford-style approach to the study of legal concepts. In my comment, I try to assess
how convincing is Canale’s proposal of providing reasons for settling conflicts, with
a special focus to the similarities between philosophy of law and political philosophy.
Both these branches of philosophy are likely to have the explanatory resources for
underpinning our common sense assumptions about law and morality.
