War on terrorism and philosophy of law. Some remarks on the post-9/11 period
Abstract
The article examines to what extend existing philosophy of law
and especially natural law doctrine may be applied in the discourse
on legitimization of a state fighting terrorism. Since the
9-11 attacks issues of extraordinary threats to public safety occur
regularly in scientific discussions among ethics, sociologists, political
scientists, security experts. This topic has also became visible
in legal science, even in its most unworldly discipline which is
philosophy of law. The article is intended to present general tendencies
in legal discussions after 9-11 with special reference to aristotelic-
tomistic tradition of understanding the notions of common
good, the aim of a state and of law.
