Recht - Philosophie - Literatur Buchkatalog

»Law - Philosophy - Literature« With their contribution to this Festschrift, the authors honor the legal scholar and philosopher Reinhard Merkel on the occasion of his 70th birthday on April 12th. Readers of his works meet a gifted essayist and sharp-witted analyst, who is visible in the world of science and valued as an elegant wordsmith. The articles in this volume reflect his impressively wide-ranging oeuvre and diverse interests, from literary and (legal) philosophical works to numerous chapters on criminal law and criminal procedure as well as international law. Many contributions engage with themes emerging from his role in the German Ethics Council and legal and ethical issues of medicine and the biosciences.
