This article was one of the last I read in 2022 and has really stuck in my mind. "The Folk Concept of Law: #Law Is Intrinsically Moral" (Flanagan and Hannikainen).

It's also worth questioning if popular understandings of the law change what the law is - or how it is understood and related to. #legaltheory #morals #philosophy
