"Les valeurs jouent un rôle central dans la vie politique et sociale. Les débatteurs de la société civile et les politiciens les invoquent pour justifier leurs choix et leurs actes. Et pourtant le jugement de valeur est toujours encore suspect d'être prescriptif et inique. Juger, oser critiquer, ce serait trahir la cause d'un objectivisme sacralisé, jouer les belles âmes moralisatrices. Cet ouvrage entreprend, au contraire, de réhabiliter le jugement de valeur. L'auteur y démontre que la rhétorique argumentative permet de penser la rationalité axiologique et de la mettre en oeuvre. La démonstration est illustrée par l'analyse d'articles traitant la question des valeurs, de la définition du terrorisme, du juste et de l'injuste dans les médias."--

"Few people associate law books with humor. Yet the legal world--in particular the American legal system--is itself frequently funny. Indeed, jokes about the profession are staples of American comedy. And there is actually humor within the world of law too: both lawyers and judges occasionally strive to be funny to deal with the drudgery of their duties. Just as importantly, though, our legal system is a strong regulator of humor. It encourages some types of humor while muzzling or punishing others. In a sense, law and humor engage a two-way feedback loop: humor provides the raw material for legal regulation and legal regulation inspires humor. In Guilty Pleasures, legal scholar Laura Little provides a multi-faceted account of American law and humor, looking at constraints on humor (and humor's effect on law), humor about law, and humor in law. In addition to interspersing amusing episodes from the legal world throughout the book, the book contains 75 New Yorker cartoons about lawyers and a preface by Bob Mankoff, the cartoon editor for the New Yorker"--
