Our politics has not escaped the 'witch trials'. iai.tv/articles/witch-hunts-โ€ฆ Historian Marion Gibson has traced the words of those accused of witchcraft, uncovering lives caught in cycles of suspicion, confession and punishment. Now she draws a direct line from those trials to politicsโ€™ adoption of the phrase 'witch hunt'.

Bukuย ini berjudul Law's Empireย karya Ronald Dworkin yang mengkajiย filsafat hukumย dengan fokus khusus pada sifat interpretasi legal dan perselisihan teoretis di kalangan praktisi hukum. Dworkin menganalisis bagaimana paraย hakim dan pengacaraย sering kali memperdebatkan makna sebenarnya dari suatu undang-undang, bukan sekadar mempermasalahkan fakta sejarah atau moralitas semata. Dworkin memperkenalkan konsepย konstruktif interpretasi, di mana argumen hukum dipandang sebagai upaya untuk menemukan pembenaran terbaik atas praktik hukum secara keseluruhan. Ia juga turut menyoroti perdebatan seputar pandanganย fakta polosย (plain-fact view) yang menganggap hukum hanyalah kumpulan keputusan institusional masa lalu. Dworkin, melalui studi kasus terkenal seperti perkara surat waris (Elmer's case) dan perlindungan spesies ikan (The Snail Darter Case) mengilustrasikan bagaimana pengadilan menafsirkan undang-undang ketika dihadapkan padaย ambiguitas teksย dan niat legislatif. Dalam karyanya Law's Empire, Ronald Dworkin membangun teori hukum komprehensif yang menentang pandangan positivisme hukum dan menawarkan cara pandang baru tentang hakikat hukum. Dworkin menolak pandangan fakta kasat-mata (plain-fact view) dan teori semantik yang menyatakan bahwa hukum hanyalah aturan historis tertulis yang disepakati secara konvensional. Ia menunjukkan bahwa dalam kasus-kasus sulit (hard cases), para hakim tidak sekadar berselisih mengenai fakta empiris, melainkan melakukanย perselisihan teoretis murniย tentang landasan dasar hukum (grounds of law) dan prinsip moral politik yang membenarkannya. Menurut Dworkin memahami hukum tidak dapat dilakukan secara eksternal seperti pengamat netral atau sosiolog. Hukum harus dipahami dariย sudut pandang internal para pesertanyaย (Internal Point of View) terutama hakim dan praktisi hukum yang terlibat langsung dalam perdebatan mengenai apa yang dituntut oleh tatanan hukum. Penalaran hukum pada hakikatnya adalah sebuahย interpretasi konstruktif. Hakim tidak menciptakan hukum baru secara bebas dari ruang hampa, melainkan berkewajiban menafsirkan praktik hukum komunitasnya agar tampil dalamย "cahaya terbaiknya"ย (best light). Interpretasi ini harus memenuhi dua kriteria utama, yaitu Kesesuaian (ย Fitย ): Selaras dengan Catatan/sejarah hukum yang ada (undang-undang dan preseden). Dan Pembenaran Moral (ย Justificationย ): Memiliki pembenaran moral politik yang paling kuat dan rasional. Gagasan puncak Dworkin adalahย Integritas Hukum. Konsepsi ini menuntut agar tatanan hukum dipahami sebagai satu kesatuan yang utuh dan koheren secara prinsip. Pemerintah dan peradilan wajibย "berbicara dengan satu suara"ย (speak with one voice), memperlakukan seluruh warga negara secara adil berdasarkan prinsip moralitas politik, keadilan, dan kesetaraan yang konsisten. -Ronald Dworkin-
