The conviction that the general »validity« of moral and legal norms could be proved independently from their historical origin or cultural »genesis« is as widespread as it is contested in moral-philosophical and legal debates. In light of these discussions, this volume undertakes constructive reconciliation attempts.
The conviction that the general »validity« of moral and legal norms could be proved independently from their historical origin or cultural »genesis« is as widespread as it is contested in moral-philosophical and legal debates. In light of these discussions, this volume undertakes constructive reconciliation attempts. The contributions trace how moral and legal norms are formed in the course of historical experiences and cultural learning processes and question how far the reference to specific experience of injustice delivers a methodological contribution to the creation of general norms.
