US legal scholar Ronald Dworkin dies in UK aged 81
LONDON -- The American philosopher and constitutional law expert Ronald Dworkin has died at the age of 81.
Dworkin's family says he died early Thursday in London of leukemia.
Dworkin was a professor of law at New York University and emeritus professor at University College London.
He was best known for articulating the principle that the most important virtue the law can display is integrity - understood as the moral idea that the state should act on principle so each member of the community is treated as an equal.
A frequent contributor to the New York Review of Books, Dworkin's books included "A Matter of Principle," "Law's Empire," and "Justice for Hedgehogs."

DWORKIN'S DEAD, AND HIS DAUGHTER IS NO FUCKING SCHOLAR
http://leiterreports.typepad.com/
ANOTHER: The Guardian obituary is a bit hyperbolic, and contains some factual errors (e.g., Dworkin's daughter was a PhD candidate in philosophy at Cornell, not a philosophy professor there). But it also gives a fuller portrait than the short AP obituary. |

I've always had a lot of respect for him since I heard that, since that's usually what I did when I had to listen to her prattle on at dinner.
