Abstract

The article focuses on a short study of philosopher Morris Raphael Cohen's application of his metaphysics to his philosophy of law. Cohen has lived to become a sage, a humanitarian, a great teacher and an extraordinarily gifted and influential philosopher of science, civilization and law. He was a sage because he knew the limitations of wisdom and the bitterness and resignation attendant upon a life obedient to the reasoned dictates of wisdom. The search for a humane approach found in Cohen's writings on law and social order which is apparent throughout his work.
