Alford, C. Fred.

Narrative, nature, and the natural lawfrom Aquinas to international human rights /[electronic resource] :C. Fred Alford. - 1st ed. - New York, N.Y. :Palgrave Macmillan,2010. - ix, 176 p.

Includes bibliographical references (p. [159]-168) and index.

Introduction -- Saint Thomas : putting nature into natural law -- Maritain and the love for the natural law -- The new natural law and evolutionary natural law -- International human rights, natural law, and Locke -- Conclusion : Evil and the limits of the natural law.

Beginning with Saint Thomas Aquinas and ending with the latest developments in international human rights, "Narrative, Nature, and the Natural Law: From Aquinas to International Human Rights," brings a fairly traditional interpretation of the natural law to some rather untraditional problems and areas, including evolutionary natural law. The term "traditional interpretation" refers not to the religious or ideological perspective of the book, but rather to the view that natural law is "written on the heart." Untraditional is the way the book uses narrative theory to put feelings into words, and words into feelings. In other words, stories, rather than argument, become the basic unit ofthe natural law.
