Natural Law Versus Alternative Dispute Resolution
Here is a letter from the Birmingham Jail, April 16, 1963, written by. Martin Luther King, Jr. “There are two types of laws: just & unjust laws XXXXXXXXXXA just law is a man-made code that squares with the moral law . . . An unjust law is a code that is out of harmony with the moral law XXXXXXXXXXAn unjust law is a human law that is not rooted in eternal and natural law.”
Natural law is a theory in ethics and philosophy that says that human beings possess intrinsic values that govern our reasoning and behavior. Natural law maintains that these rules of right and wrong are inherent in people and are not created by society or court judges. In other words, the law is defined by morality
Having said that how would you believe that Martin Luther King, Jr would have agreed and disagreed with courts using alternative dispute resolution in the USA the way they are now and why?
