FAGGION, Vinicius. Is the Judicial Role Just a Descriptive Social Fact?. Probl. anu. filos. teor. derecho [online]. 2020, n.14, pp.57-78.  Epub 05-Mar-2021. ISSN 2448-7937.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iij.24487937e.2020.14.14904.

Heidi Hurd’s Moral Combat: The Dilemma of Legal Perspectivalism addresses the scope of moral obligations on judicial decision-making and reaches a skeptical conclusion regarding role-relative moralities. I carry forward the discussion putting it in contact with three known theories of role obligations. Then I proceed to argue that professional roles cannot generate moral obligations on their own. And finally, I will explain how another theory can better explain the relationship between the judicial role and moral obligations in a non-constitutive fashion.

Palabras llave : Role Obligations; Moral Dilemmas; Practical Reasons; Judicial Decision-Making.
