OLIVEIRA, Martín. The application of the "skeptical paradox"to law. Ideas y Valores [online]. 2018, vol.67, n.167, pp.103-126. ISSN 0120-0062.  https://doi.org/10.15446/ideasyvalores.v67n167.58669.

The article questions the two conclusions attributed to the application of "Wittgenstein's skeptical paradox" to law, as developed by S. Kripke: that is, either the paradox is applied to the practice of law and it is indeterminate or impossible, or the paradox is completely irrelevant for the practice of law and for philosophical reflection in that respect. The paper suggests that philosophy of right can accept the relevance of the paradox and draw new elements from it.

Keywords : S. Kripke; L. Wittgenstein; law; skeptical paradox.
