Animals and Nature as Rights Holders in the European Union
The Modern Law Review, Volume 86, Issue 6, Page 1336-1357, November 2023., 2023 This article argues that EU law can be interpreted to support the current existence of legal rights for animals and nature.

Political constitutionalism in Europe revisited
Journal of Law and Society, Volume 50, Issue S1, Page S115-S139, September 2023., 2023 Abstract This article traces the disconnect in the constitutional study of the European Union from the Maastricht era to the euro crisis.

Ratio Juris, Volume 36, Issue 1, Page 26-47, March 2023., 2023 Abstract Riggs v. Palmer has become famous since Dworkin used it to show that legal positivism is defective. The debate over the merits of Dworkin's claims is still very lively. Yet not enough attention has been paid to the fact that the content of the statute at issue in Riggs was given by the counterfactual intention of the legislature.

The Morality of Compensation through Tort Law
Ratio Juris, Volume 36, Issue 1, Page 3-25, March 2023., 2023 Abstract In this paper, I will focus on the normative structure of tort law. Only by elucidating the point or rationale of holding the wrongdoer responsible to the victim can we understand the value of having tort law instead of establishing other mechanisms of redress, such as a social insurance scheme.

Exploring Sovereignty in Scotland
The Political Quarterly, Volume 94, Issue 1, Page 26-35, January/March 2023., 2023 Abstract It is often said that sovereignty is ever less meaningful in the modern world. Yet, sovereignty claims continue to proliferate. There are two elements: the subject of self‐determination (sovereignty) claims and the object. Scottish independence and Brexit are two examples, yet they differ in important ways.

Law and Coercion: Some Clarification
Ratio Juris, Volume 34, Issue 1, Page 74-87, March 2021., 2021 Abstract The relationship between law and coercion has been, and still is, a central topic in legal philosophy. Despite this, discussion about it is immersed in confusion. Some philosophers have noticed this, but hardly any work has been done to attempt to solve or even identify the confusions. This paper aims to fill this gap.
