(2009) A treatise of legal philosophy and general jurisprudence 9-10, Dordrecht, Springer.
The very phrase "Marx's philosophy of law" is deeply problematical—for there are important thinkers on the political "left" who underscore Marx's own argument that all philosophy is ideology, a mere "epiphenomenal" reflection or echo of a determining material 'substructure" (see esp. Marx and Engels 1963, Part 1, passim)—so that "philosophy of law" must really be "ideology of law," not an inquiry into timeless, placeless "justice."
