Jonathan Crowe (Bond University – School of Law) has posted Natural Law, Weak and Strong on SSRN. Here is the abstract:
This paper examines the distinction between weak and strong varieties of the natural law position in general jurisprudence. I begin by clarifying the distinction, before offering an argument for what I call a hybrid natural law theory, which combines versions of both the weak and strong claims. Along the way, I criticise Mark Murphy’s arguments for the explanatory priority of the weak natural law view.
