Ratio Juris published by University of Bologna and John Wiley & Sons Ltd.This short paper addresses a well-known difficulty in the Pure Theory of Law: the definition of a legal wrong. Kelsen was unable to offer a suitable one, critics say. I agree. But the critics misdiagnosed the problem, and prescribed for it a fruitless solution. The reason for Kelsen’s failure, the critics say, was that he thought the law consists only of sanction-stipulating norms addressed to officials, and does not comprise duty-imposing norms addressed to citizens. But the critics are wrong, exegetically as well as substantively. Kelsen did not—and indeed could not—deny that there are such duty-imposing norms; and it is not the case, in any event, that the admission that there are such norms would enable us to explain the notion of a legal wrong. Kelsen failed to provide an adequate characterization of the notion of a legal wrong, yes, but for a different reason.Centro de Investigação e Desenvolvimento sobre Direito e Sociedade (CEDIS)NOVA School of Law|Faculdade de Direito (NSL|FD)RUND’almeida, Luís Duarte2024-03-18T22:45:48Z2022-092022-09-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/article11application/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10362/165090eng0952-1917PURE: 58520042https://doi.org/10.1111/raju.12356info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP)instname:FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiainstacron:RCAAP2024-05-22T18:19:40Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/165090Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireinfo@rcaap.ptopendoar:https://opendoar.ac.uk/repository/71602025-05-28T17:50:30.820138Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP) - FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiafalse
