SUMMARY:Annual Aquinas Colloquium: “Aquinas and the Development of Law”
DESCRIPTION:AQUINAS INSTITUTE ANNUAL COLLOQUIUM\n“Development” conveys notions of improving\, refining\, advancing – change for the better. While Aquinas did not think that eternal wisdom could improve\, he did hold – perhaps surprisingly – that natural and divine law could develop in some fashion. The Colloquium will explore the development of human\, natural\, and divine law as well as the contrast with eternal law. The speakers will discuss how theories of law treat changes in law itself or in the understanding of law. \nProf Jay Budziszewski (University of Texas)\nOf Course Human Law Develops. Can Natural and Divine Law Develop? \nProf Ryan Meade (Loyola University\, Chicago)\nWhen Should or Shouldn’t Human Law Change? Ethics and Assessing Legal Code \nDr Jonathan Price (University of Oxford)\nHugo Grotius and the Shrinking of the Natural Law Doctrine \nRev Dr Richard Conrad OP (Aquinas Institute)\nThe Revision of Civil Law: The Torah Exemplifies Aquinas’ Principles \n  \nBuffet lunch provided with donations of £10 requested at door (£5 students/unwaged)
