Lecturing on the Norm of Love in Criminal Justice ― Judgments of Love in Criminal Justice

This volume is a new chapter in the future history of law. Its general perspective could not be more original and its critical ethical edge on the state of international law could not be timelier. It explores a decent philosophy in the genuine substance of law, criminal procedures, and international criminal justice. It divides law into three interrelated disciplines, i.e. legality, morality and love. The norm love encompasses a mandatory norm. Its goal is to produce a normative and positive, powerful result, therefore avoiding any impurity that may exist in the application of other norms because of political or juridical rules, a one-eyed-justice. The norm love enquires into justice with the principles of legal accountability, transparency and the high moral bare values of humanity. The notion of justice cannot be trusted in the absence of love norm. It indicates the conditions of its efficiency by proving its reasons of existence for fairness, objectivity, concern of all individuals and entities. The norm love should be the basic reason for teaching law in all faculties of law.

A lawyer with the knowledge of law is not a lawyer if he cannot understand that the law does not look for a lawyer with the knowledge of its provisions for incomes, but one with the knowledge of its essence for the maturity of morality of justice and for the bare reason of love for justice. This book recognises that the norm love comprises one of the most essential cornerstones of criminal law, procedures and international criminal justice. The value of the norm is beyond legal and moral norms. It is derived from human reason for his advancement, and securing of natural rights. The book suggests that we have to use the norm of love to prevent serious conflicts before we attempt to face atrocities against humanity. Appropriate human rights law, criminal procedures and international criminal law would never have been possible if good deeds had not been given priority.
