<summary type="text">Legal Adjudication, Material Corecctness, and Moral Objectivity; Rešavanje pravnih sporova, materijalna ispravnost i moralni objektivizam
The paper explores Wróblewski’s classical distinction&#13;
between internal and external justification,&#13;
highlighting two interpretations. According to&#13;
the first, a decision is internally justified if it follows&#13;
from the chosen premises and externally&#13;
justified if those premises are also justified. From&#13;
this perspective, some theorists have claimed that&#13;
internal justification suffices for easy cases, while&#13;
hard cases require external justification. However,&#13;
it will be shown that this is a mistake arising from&#13;
an ambiguity in the term “justification”, and clarifying&#13;
this ambiguity reveals that both easy and&#13;
hard cases require the same kind of justification.&#13;
In the second interpretation, a decision is internally&#13;
justified if it is derived from existing law and&#13;
externally justified if its content is morally acceptable.&#13;
This leads to an examination of the relationship&#13;
between legal and moral justification. In this&#13;
regard, Carlos Nino’s claim that legal reasoning&#13;
is a form of moral reasoning will be critically assessed&#13;
by showing that it ultimately conflates the&#13;
nature of norms with the nature of the reasons for&#13;
their acceptance. Finally, it will be argued that&#13;
moral objectivism is irrelevant for strong justification&#13;
of judicial decisions (which requires valid&#13;
reasoning with correct premises). Metaethical&#13;
scepticism does not undermine substantive moral&#13;
judgments or weaken moral debate, just as metaethical&#13;
objectivism does not strengthen them.; Rad istražuje vroblevskijevsku klasičnu razliku&#13;
između unutrašnjeg i spoljašnjeg opravdanja,&#13;
naglašavajući dva tumačenja. Prema prvom,&#13;
odluka je interno opravdana ako proizilazi iz izabranih&#13;
premisa i eksterno opravdana ako su i te&#13;
premise opravdane. Iz ove perspektive, neki teoretičari&#13;
tvrde da je unutrašnje opravdanje dovoljno&#13;
za lake slučajeve, dok teški slučajevi zahtevaju&#13;
spoljno opravdanje. Međutim, pokazaće se da je&#13;
reč o grešci koja proizilazi iz dvosmislenosti termina&#13;
„opravdanje“, a razjašnjavanje ove dvosmislenosti&#13;
otkriva da i laki i teški slučajevi zahtevaju&#13;
istu vrstu opravdanja. Prema drugom tumačenju,&#13;
odluka je iznutra opravdana ako je izvedena iz&#13;
postojećeg zakona i eksterno opravdana ako je&#13;
njen sadržaj moralno prihvatljiv. Ovo dovodi do&#13;
ispitivanja odnosa između pravnog i moralnog&#13;
opravdanja. S tim u vezi, tvrdnja Karlosa Nina da&#13;
je pravno rasuđivanje oblik moralnog rasuđivanja&#13;
biće kritički ocenjena tako što će se pokazati&#13;
da ono na kraju spaja prirodu normi sa prirodom&#13;
razloga za njihovo prihvatanje. Konačno, biće&#13;
argumentovano da je moralni objektivizam irelevantan&#13;
za snažno opravdanje sudskih odluka (što&#13;
zahteva valjano rasuđivanje sa ispravnim premisama).&#13;
Metaetički skepticizam ne podriva suštinske&#13;
moralne sudove niti slabi moralnu debatu,&#13;
kao što ih metaetički objektivizam ne jača.

<summary type="text">Legal Realism Bound; Ograničenje pravnog realizma
The article engages with a rich and provocative&#13;
book by Bojan Spaić titled Priroda i&#13;
determinante sudijskog tumačenja prava.&#13;
While expressing agreement with the overall&#13;
refutation of formalism as a theory of judicial&#13;
decision-making, the critique challenges&#13;
Spaić’s extreme version of legal scepticism.&#13;
While linguistic formulations of legal norms&#13;
are undoubtedly indeterminate, this indeterminacy&#13;
is not as pervasive as Spaić contends.&#13;
A degree of determinacy, however,&#13;
explains more convincingly the interpretive&#13;
uniformity that Spaić tries to explain by relying&#13;
on determinants of judicial interpretation&#13;
of law. While these factors may throw&#13;
some light on the actual process of adjudication,&#13;
the critique expresses doubts as to&#13;
whether they can guarantee uniformity to&#13;
the degree that Spaić asserts; Članak se bavi provokativnom knjigom Bojana&#13;
Spaića pod naslovom,,Priroda i determinante&#13;
sudijskog tumačenja prava”.&#13;
Izražavajući saglasnost sa sveukupnim&#13;
opovrgavanjem formalizma kao teorije sudijskog&#13;
odlučivanja, kritički osvrt u radu osporava&#13;
Spaićevu ekstremnu verziju pravnog&#13;
skepticizma. Dok su jezičke formulacije&#13;
pravnih normi nesumnjivo neodređene, ta&#13;
neodređenost nije toliko prožimajuća kako&#13;
to Spaić tvrdi. Izvestan stepen određenosti,&#13;
međutim, ubedljivije objašnjava interpretativnu&#13;
uniformnost koju Spaić pokušava&#13;
da objasni oslanjajući se na determinante&#13;
sudijskog tumačenja prava. Iako ovi faktori&#13;
mogu donekle baciti svetlo na stvarni proces&#13;
donošenja presuda, kritika izražava sumnju&#13;
da li oni mogu garantovati uniformnost do&#13;
stepena koji tvrdi Spaić.

<summary type="text">Sudijsko odlučivanje – između skepticizma i formalizma; Judicial Decision-Making – Between Skepticism And Formalism
Nakon kratkog osvrta na osnovne teze iznete&#13;
u ovoj knjizi, iznosim tri kritike. Prvo, umesto&#13;
da nas primarno uputi u to na koji bi način&#13;
uvidi bihevioralne psihologije mogli da budu&#13;
značajni za razumevanje jednog posve specifičnog&#13;
postupka odlučivanja, kakvo je ono&#13;
sudijsko, Spaić naširoko raspravlja o krajnjim&#13;
domašajima tih naučnih saznanja za&#13;
naše razumevanje procesa odlučivanja uopšte.&#13;
Tako se pretežno bavi efektima postojanja&#13;
pravnih pravila na generička obeležja&#13;
donošenja odluka umesto da osvetli značaj&#13;
pomenutih obeležja za specifičan postupak&#13;
sudijskog odlučivanja po unapred utvrđenim&#13;
pravilima. Drugo, Spaić ne uspeva da&#13;
na uverljiv način odgovori na problem spojivosti&#13;
normativne doktrine formalizma sa radikalno&#13;
antiformalističkom teorijom prava.&#13;
Najzad, Spaićeva pozicija deli sudbinu ostalih&#13;
radikalno nekognitivističkih (realističkih)&#13;
pozicija u pogledu sudijskog tumačenja, utoliko&#13;
što suštinski osporava normativnost zakona&#13;
kao najtipičnijeg autoritativnog teksta&#13;
po kojem sudija postupa.; After a brief review of the basic theses presented&#13;
in this book, I turn to three criticisms.&#13;
First, instead of primarily instructing us in&#13;
how the insights of behavioral psychology&#13;
could be significant for the understanding&#13;
of a very specific decision-making process,&#13;
such as that of judge, Spaić discusses at&#13;
length the ultimate implications of those scientific&#13;
findings for our understanding of the&#13;
decision-making process in general. Thus,&#13;
he mainly deals with the effects of the existence&#13;
of legal rules on the generic characteristics&#13;
of decision-making instead of shedding&#13;
light on the importance of the mentioned&#13;
characteristics for the specific procedure of&#13;
judicial decision-making within the setting&#13;
of predetermined rules. Second, Spaić fails&#13;
to convincingly answer the problem of the&#13;
compatibility of the normative doctrine of&#13;
formalism with the radically anti-formalist&#13;
theory of law. Finally, Spaić's position shares&#13;
the fate of other radically non-cognitivist (realist)&#13;
positions regarding judicial interpretation,&#13;
insofar as he essentially challenges the&#13;
normativity of the law as the most typical&#13;
authoritative text by which a judge acts.
