Description

This edited collection examines contemporary questions about legal personhood across animals, artificial intelligence and the unborn. The book addresses both analytic-descriptive inquiries into what legal personality means and normative questions about who or what deserves recognition as a legal person. Drawing on established legal theory, the work explores how law constructs personhood in surprising ways: corporations hold legal person status whilst historically slaves were classified as property rather than persons. These fundamental tensions in legal personhood theory remain underexamined in scholarly discourse. The essays provide rigorous philosophical analysis of how legal systems define and attribute rights, capacities and protections. This volume contributes essential theoretical frameworks for understanding personhood in law and offers crucial perspectives on emerging challenges posed by non-human entities seeking legal recognition and protection.

Key Features

The book comprises novel contributions on legal personhood and human rights from multiple scholarly perspectives and theoretical approaches.

Essays examine what legal personality actually means through analytic-descriptive analysis grounded in legal theory and philosophy.

Normative arguments address who or what should be recognised as a legal person under contemporary law.

The work explores inconsistencies in how law treats different entities, from corporations as persons to historical denial of personhood to enslaved people.

Part of the Law and Philosophy Library series (volume 119), published by Springer for academic and professional readership.

Addresses emerging legal questions about personhood status for animals, artificial intelligence systems and the unborn.
