The Legacy of Ronald Dworkin: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "The Legacy of Ronald Dworkin" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

This book assembles leading legal, political, and moral philosophers to examine the legacy of the work of Ronald Dworkin. They provide the most comprehensive critical treatment of Dworkins accomplishments focusing on his work in all branches of philosophy, including his theory of value, political philosophy, philosophy of international law, and legal philosophy.
The books organizing principle and theme reflect Dworkins self-conception as a builder of a unified theory of value, and the broad outlines of his system can be found throughout the book. The first section addresses the most abstract and general aspect of Dworkins work--the unity of value thesis. The second section explores Dworkins contributions to political philosophy, and discusses a number of political concepts including authority, civil disobedience, the legitimacy of states and the international legal system, distributive justice, collective responsibility, and Dworkins master value of dignity and the associated values of equal concern and respect. The third section addresses various aspects of Dworkins general theory of law. The fourth and final section comprises accounts of the structure and defining values of discrete areas of law.

1 A Hedgehogs Unity of Value
Joseph Raz

Ronald Dworkin was nothing if not an inventive and innovative theorist. Though, like all of us deeply embedded in his time and the ideas of his time, he was carving his views out of his own imaginative resources, to an ever-growing degree free from the need to grapple, in his own contributions, with the conventional paradigms set by others, and at the same time, in his critical commentaries on events and ideas, dissecting the presuppositions, ideas, and writings and exposing the fallacies of opponents.
