Episode notes
“Development” conveys notions of improving, refining, advancing – change for the better. While Aquinas did not think that eternal wisdom could improve, he did hold – perhaps surprisingly – that natural and divine law could develop in some fashion. The Colloquium will explore the development of human, natural, and divine law as well as the contrast with eternal law. The speakers will discuss how theories of law treat changes in law itself or in the understanding of law.
