The result, Kelsen’s sanction theory, is not entirely successful.

The author introduces the concept of Chinese aphorisms (wisdoms, maxims, thoughts), confronting it with the role played by Latin maxims in law and legal culture.

Usually, reflection is arranged along two axes: the economic and ethical one.
- On Gustav Radbruch’s Notion of Antinomies of the Idea of LawThe main purpose of the paper is to analyse the notion of antinomies of the idea of law developed in Gustav Radbruch’s philosophy. In the first part of the paper, I analyse the most detailed explication of the notion of antinomy contained in part of Radbruch’s Philosophy of Law.
