Le positivisme juridique en tant que théorie sur l'existence du droit : un commentaire sur Judging Positivism de Margaret Martin.
Ce commentaire examine de manière critique la conception du positivisme juridique qui sous-tend le défi lancé par Margaret Martin au contenu et à la méthode de cette tradition intellectuelle. L'affirmation centrale de cet article est que sa caractérisation de la théorie substantielle du positivisme juridique néglige une dimension plus fondamentale, et explicativement prioritaire, liée à la théorie positiviste de l'existence des systèmes et des normes juridiques. Je soutiens également que sa caractérisation de la méthodologie descriptive du positivisme comme un projet non normatif est trop exigeante et ne peut pas saisir la relation entre le droit et la moralité reconnue par les positivistes contemporains ni la distinction entre les questions internes et externes. Ces clarifications fournissent des ressources pour commencer à répondre à certaines des objections de Martin contre le projet de Raz.
