Between Reason and Strategy. Some Reflections on the Normativity of Proportionality
Original language description
The paper links proportionality to the wider debate on law?s normativity, with an eye to contributing fresh insights into the nature and workings of proportionality. On the one hand it contents that legal obligation is grounded on deontological (moral) reasons (2). On the other it argues that legal rights are better understood not in their traditional defensive? role as negative constraints, but as opening up spaces of freedom that need to be fleshed out by publicly authorised norms (3). A general conclusion of the paper is that proportionality ought not function as a moral filter for authoritative norms but instead as an interpretative principle that organises a legal system as a system of publicly authorised norms, which aim at the realisation of theautonomy of those living under it.
