John Finnis

Feel like telling us what they are, or why they're giving you trouble? (Might explain the lack of response.)

Ooops - sorry. Its just that I assumed that those who knew John finnis would know what I was referring to - but that is a dumb assumption.
John Finnis - as I understand it is at Oxford U and is a legal theorist and philosopher. He is an advocate of natural law and his reasoning is that law and what is right for socieity should be based on 9 certain goods, one of them practical reason, which then itself expands into another 10 points. I need to get an idea on how to apply them - as in how they work, not just the facts of his theory.

wait a minute - who does legal theories and philosophy?? I need help on a lot of the theorists - this is directed to the USA - who knows about american realism?
