Abstract This article extends the critique of H. L. A. Hart developed by Peter Fitzpatrick in the conclusion to The Mythology of Modern Law. Fitzpatrick finds myth at the very heart of positivist legal theory, functioning to reproduce an imperialist worldview. Through a focus on Hart’s account of incorporation, this article will argue that Hart naturalises this mythic law by insinuating it into social relations. Incorporation, alongside other ‘facilitative’ or ‘power-conferring’ elements of law such as wills and marriages, are so important that we could not imagine life without them. At the same time, Hart maintains the importance of choice and autonomy in relation to such rules, but in so doing obscures their constitutive function. In his reliance on myth, Hart avoids contending with the history that forms the unacknowledged context for his account of incorporation. By reintroducing this history, this article demonstrates that Hart participates in the normalisation of law that Michel Foucault locates in the union between life and law that is characteristic of biopolitics.

神话化:牡鹿,生物政治和法人团体

摘要本文扩展了彼得·菲茨帕特里克(Peter Fitzpatrick)在《现代法的神话》的结论中对HLA Hart的批评。菲茨帕特里克(Fitzpatrick)在实证主义法律理论的核心发现神话,其作用是再现帝国主义的世界观。通过关注哈特关于公司合并的说明,本文将论证说,哈特通过将其融入社会关系中来使这一神话法自然化。合并以及其他诸如“遗嘱”和婚姻之类的“促进性”或“赋予权力的”法律要素非常重要,以至于我们无法想象没有它们的生活。同时,哈特(Hart)保留了与此类规则相关的选择和自治的重要性,但这样做却掩盖了它们的构成功能。依靠神话 哈特避免与构成他的公司成立的未经认可的背景的历史相抗衡。通过重新介绍这一历史,本文证明了哈特参与了米歇尔•福柯(Michel Foucault)将生命政治定为生物政治特征的法律规范化。
