Legal Moral and Metaphysical Truths

Perhaps more than any other scientist, Michael Moore has argued that there are deep and necessary connections between metaphysics, morality, and law. Moore developed all the contours of a theory of criminal law, from the philosophy of action to the theory of causality. Indeed, not only is he the central figure in retaliatory punishment, but his morally realistic stance places him at the center of many legal debates. This volume, composed of essays by eminent scholars, discusses and challenges Michael Moore`s work in one or more of the fields in which he has made a lasting contribution: law, morality, metaphysics, psychiatry and neuroscience. The volume begins with a captivating contribution by Heidi Hurd, in which she casts an unadorned and shameless look at the man behind this monumental work, both full of triumph and grief. A series of essays focuses on Moore`s view of the purpose and justification of criminal justice, particularly his advocacy of retaliation and legal moralism. The book then explores Moore`s work in various aspects of the general part of criminal law, including Moore`s position on how criminal acts should be understood for the purposes of double jeopardy, Moore`s assertion that liability for accomplices is superfluous, Moore`s views on culpability of negligence, and the relationship between this view and direct causation. In addition, the topic of criminal defense, including self-defense, as well as the interface of psychiatry, cognitive neuroscience and criminal law are covered. The characteristics of morality and Moore`s work in general jurisprudence are also discussed. Finally, Moore concludes the volume with an essay defending and describing the characteristics of his opinions.
