What the law is seems to be a matter of fact, but this fact has normative significance: it tells people what they ought to do. Marmor argues that the myriad questions raised by the factual and normative features of law actually depend on the possibility of reduction-whether the legal domain can be explained in terms of something else, more foundational in nature. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn addition to exploring the major issues in contemporary legal thought, \u003ci\u003ePhilosophy of Law\u003c\/i\u003e provides a critical analysis of the people and ideas that have dominated the field in past centuries.
