This book shows that Hauriouâs positivist and pragmatic jurisprudence and social theory, as well as their application to the study of institutions, is satisfactorily supported by his idealistic philosophy. The nine chapters first locate Hauriouâs influences, then situate his disciplinary methodologies within methodology in general. The central chapters concern each of the three methodologies in turn.
âGrayâs book is an interesting philosophical read for those wanting to know more about Hauriouâs philosophy of law and of social groups.â in: The Review of Metaphysics, Vol. 64, 2011
