The rule of law and Russia -- Russia and the transformation of law -- The trial of Dmitri Karamazov -- The adversary system and Dostoevsky -- Dostoevsky's moral theory in historical context |
Summary |
The trial of Dmitri Karamazov embodies Dostoevsky's general legal and moral philosophy. This book explains and critically analyses such notions as the rule of law, the adversary system of adjudication, the principle of universal moral responsibility, the plausibility of unconditional love, and the contours of human nature. The ballast for conclusions about all these ideas is an understanding of the relationship between individuals and their communities |
