The book explores the concept of presupposition in legal theory, particularly in relation to Kelsen's basic norm. It delves into the significance of basic assumptions within the law, arguing that the term "to presuppose" encompasses both conceptual and normative aspects. The author asserts that the phrase "presupposing the basic norm" effectively captures the descriptive-normative character of statements made in legal contexts, emphasizing the interplay between legal language and foundational principles.
