goal of law

Richard Dawkins’ Law Delusion: ...great minds often err when they leave their field of expertise. снова, почти теми же словами, что и в The Folly of Fools.

далее г-н Ronald Sokol с похвальной прямотой пишут:

The goal of law, unlike that of science, is not to determine truth; its primary aim is to minimize conflict. US Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis summed up this understanding as follows: “In most matters it is more important that the applicable rule of law be settled than that it be settled right.” Even a wrong or “unjust” decision can end a conflict.

wow how very interesting

комментарии там хороши: Tom Shillock цитирует “In most matters it is more important that the applicable rule of law be settled than that it be settled right.” Even a wrong or “unjust” decision can end a conflict." и говорит по этому поводу: Stalin could agree with that.

ну положим Сталин тут, скорее всего, решил бы вопрос окончательно. но по смыслу Tom Shillock прав, вождь и учитель поддержал бы американский верховный суд в этом вопросе.

там много забавного и познавательного, и в статье и в комментариях.
