On judicial virtue (Prof Amalia Amaya Navarro, UNAM and Edinburgh)

In this episode, we are speaking with Amalia Amaya Navarro,  Research Professor at the National Autonomous University of Mexico and British Academy Global Professor at the University of Edinburgh, where she works primarily in philosophy of law, with a particular focus on legal reasoning and epistemology, theories of justice, and international normative theory. 

We discuss virtue ethics, reflect on Dworkinian Hercules and consider new and old perspectives on virtuous judicial decision making.

We invite you to engage with Amalia’s recent scholarship:

• Virtue and the Normativity of Law, ANCIENT PHILOSOPHY TODAY: DIALOGOI, vol. 4, suppl., 2022. 
• Precedent, Exemplarity, and Imitation,’ T. Endicott, S. Lewis and H. D. Kristjánsson, (eds.), Philosophical Foundations of Precedent, Oxford University Press, Oxford, 2023.  

We hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we did.
