What are you currently reading, and how are you liking it?
I am reading "Juridiska principfrågor" as part of the class I'm taking right now. The title means "Law related questions of principles" or something like that. I like it a lot and the language in it is beautiful. I just now read about a man who had tried to create a principle of closeness when it comes to a producers responsibility towards his costumers, a long time ago (around the 1930s I think). He drew a parable between the relationship between the producer and the costumer, and the relationship between husband and wife. That you should show reasonable care and put reasonable thought into what you do, to show respect and care for the ones that will most likely be affected by how you live, prioritize etcetera... and I thought it was quite beautiful, even though I am not sure what I think about the reasoning from a legal standpoint (yet)... I like when lawyers reason about society and law from a standpoint that is resting on... feelings, I think. I don't know if it's good or right or has a good effect on it all, but I like reading about it. I think I like Rousseau mainly because of that. He has a vision and a passion and a care that is expressed when he writes about society, and I appreciate that.
What is your favourite book? Can you even choose?
Dandy by Jan Guillou! I deeply recommend it to anyone that knows swedish.
Which book did you buy last?
All the books for this class... the class is like, legal philosophy? So, books related to that.
