About this document

Legal Positivism 2 by promisesadindi38 is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Legal positivism asserts that the existence and content of law are determined by social facts rather than moral considerations. It emphasizes that laws are a product of social structures and governance, and their validity does not depend on their moral merits. Key figures in the development of legal positivism include John Austin, Jeremy Bentham, Hans Kelsen, and H.L.A. Hart, each contributing to the understanding of law as a social construction and its relationship to authority and obligation.
