Abstract

My plan for this Article, then, is as follows. I shall first try to prove to your satisfaction that there cannot be any normative system ultimately based on anything except human will. I shall then try to trace some of the scars left on recent jurisprudential writings by this growing, and apparently terrifying, realization. Finally, I shall say a few things about-of all things-law and the way in which the impossibility of normative grounding necessarily shapes attitudes toward constitutional interpretation.
