ethical jurisprudence

Read a random definition: proximate consequence

A quick definition of ethical jurisprudence:

Ethical jurisprudence is a branch of legal philosophy that looks at the law from an ethical point of view. It brings together moral and legal philosophy to examine the law's ethical significance and adequacy. It asks questions like "What is the purpose of law?" and "Is law a science, a humanity, or neither?"

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Ethical jurisprudence is a branch of legal philosophy that focuses on the ethical significance and adequacy of the law. It brings together moral and legal philosophy to examine the law from an ethical viewpoint.

Example: An example of ethical jurisprudence is the debate over the legality of abortion. While the law may allow for abortion in certain circumstances, ethical jurisprudence would examine whether the law is morally justifiable and adequate in protecting the rights of all parties involved.

Explanation: Ethical jurisprudence goes beyond the technicalities of the law and considers the ethical implications of legal decisions. It examines whether the law is consistent with moral principles and values, and whether it adequately protects the rights and interests of all parties involved. The example of abortion illustrates how ethical jurisprudence can be applied to a controversial legal issue to examine its ethical significance and adequacy.
