500			_a"This v. is a selection of 10 original essays that refine and develop ideas first presented at the conference, "Legal Science and Legal Theory," held at the University of Oxford in September 2010 to mark the 50th anniversary of the publication of the enormously influential second ed. of Kelsen's "Pure Theory of Law"--Page 1.

520			_a"Forty years after his death, Hans Kelsen (1881-1973) remains one of the most discussed and influential legal philosophers of our time. This collection of new essays takes Kelsen's Pure Theory of Law as a stimulus, aiming to move forward the debate on several central issues in contemporary jurisprudence. The essays in Part I address legal validity, the normativity of law, and Kelsen's famous but puzzling idea of a legal system's 'basic norm'. Part II engages with the difficult issues raised by the social realities of law and the actual practices of legal officials. Part III focuses on conceptual features of legal systems and the logical structure of legal norms. All the essays were written for this volume by internationally renowned scholars from seven countries. Also included, in English translation, is an important polemical essay by Kelsen himself."--Bloomsbury Publishing.
