Foreword

This book, written during a research semester, stems from a project of Ralf Dreier’s and mine aimed at a short monograph on the general outlines of legal theory. Because the present work outgrew the scope of the single chapter envisaged in our joint project.

I decided to publish it separately. For their encouragement. I wish to thank both Ernesto Garzon Valdes and Meinolf Wewel. And I extend special thanks to Ralf Dreier. whose long-standing influence can be seen in every­thing I have written here. The responsibility for mistakes is of course mine alone. 1 also wish to thank Heinkc Dietmair for her unwavering patience and care in preparing the manuscript for the press, as well as Martin Borowski. Carsten Heide­mann, and Marius Raabe for their help in reading the proofs.
