Whoever believes they possess the truth is exposed to dogmatism. Whoever claims to represent an alleged ‘natural law’ only paves the way for new conflicts. In our pluralist societies conceptions of a ‘just’ life co-exist in a state of continuous flux: this is what makes them so enriching. An examination of absolute justice and ‘leniency’, the value of the Constitution and power as commandment, the culture of rules and that of imposed ‘truth’, diversities and co-existence: the responses of a protagonist of Italian legal culture.
