Abstract

The article discusses the relationship between law and politics in America, and it mentions legal norms, rules, and legal interpretation. Rational legislators' first-order reasoning is examined, along with legal scholar Frederick "Fred" Schauer's presumptive positivism theory and sanctions for rule violators. Deception and protest are assessed, as well as Schauer's rule-sensitive particularism concept.
