Summarize the views of the philosophers relating them to the concept and nature of law. What is law, in this philosopher's view? How does law function as a system?

Analyze the philosopher's views, discovering why they are logical or illogical, consistent or inconsistent, persuasive or unpersuasive. Matters that might be relevant to your analysis could include the manner in which the philosopher addresses the commonplaces of authority and common good or the philosophers' attempts to address inadequacies of earlier philosophies.

Criticize the philosopher's views, explaining why such views are logical or illogical, consistent or inconsistent, and persuasive or unpersuasive. Illustrate your criticisms with examples of situations or "clear cases" that demonstrate the philosophy's success or failure to satisfactorily account for the concept and nature of law
