Abstract

The theory of the constitution called “the moral reading” by Dworkin is here under consideration. This theory is of particular interest since it is connected to a conception of law which helped to generate nuclear debates in legal theory, and since it has connections to some central issues of the theory of the constitutional state. At the core of Dworkin’s theory of the constitution is his tenet according to which when a judge is faced with a case which requires to interpret some part of the constitution, it is inevitable getting involved in moral and political judgments.
