Abstract

LARIGUET, Guillermo. Oh philosophy! There will be no more sorrow or forgetfulness: A reply to Carlos Montemayor's "Rationality and reasonableness in legal theory". Probl. anu. filos. teor. derecho [online]. 2015, n.9, pp.411-427. ISSN 2448-7937.

In this paper I reply to Carlos Montemayor's Rationality And Reasonableness In Legal Theory. My claim is that in philosophy in general -but also in legal philosophy in particular- there is a certain manner of understanding the analytical approach that reproduces a theoretical isolation which I find open to criticism for the many reasons I outline in the text. Additionally, I explain the way in which the phrase "legal philosophy reloaded" used in a recent article of mine is a normative one. I then distinguish between two versions of naturalism and claim for a weak version in the context of a defense of conceptual analysis.

Keywords : Analytical philosophy; Jurisprudential Methodology; Normativism; Naturalism; Dialog between Traditions; Bridges among Disciplines.
