Philosophy of law

With regard to the philosophy of contemporary law, a number of challenges have been outlined that mainly concern the impact of new technologies (both information and biomedical) in the world of law and rights. With respect to the former, the research on the relationship between law and morals is particularly relevant, while for the latter the extension of the category of subjects of law (future generations, environment, animals) and the emergence of new rights (dying with dignity, genetic integrity, sustainability) are also of interest.
