This course in jurisprudence will apply the concepts and techniques of philosophical analysis to an examination of the nature of law, issues surrounding legal reasoning, and the relationship between law, morals and theories of justice. The course will examine some of the most important theories of jurisprudence, and trace their historical development. The course will consider the debate about the separation between law and morals, and arguments for and against natural law. The course seeks not only to introduce students to modern legal philosophy, but to demonstrate how that study gives insights into the nature and function of law important to the practice of law. ASSESSMENT To be eligible to sit for the Board’s examinations, all students must complete the LEC teaching and learning program, the first step of which is to ensure that you have registered online with the LEC in each subject for which you have enrolled with the Board. This gives you access to the full range of learning resources offered by the LEC. Then, students must achieve a satisfactory result in a compulsory assignment of at least 1500 words or as prescribed. |
