Philosophy Transcendentalism, Phenomenology and Natural Law is the new degree scroll of the collection 'Reason and Normativity', promoted by the project 'Emotional culture and identity(CEMID) of the Institute for Culture and Society (ICS) of the University of Navarra. It is the fourteenth volume of the collection and is edited by researcher Mariano Crespo.

This publication collects a series of papers presented, for the most part, at a symposium organized in May 2015by the group of research 'Natural Law and Rationality internship' of the ICS. That group was incorporated into CEMID in 2016. This volume brings together contributions on various topics around the historical and systematic deepening of the various theories of natural law and rationality internship.

Some of the questions addressed are the connections between the phenomenologically inspired material ethics of values and the idea of natural law, the distinction between the sphere of the legal and the sphere of the moral, the criticism of the consideration of human rights as founded on natural law, the reasons why we have certain acts and duties as a consequence of social acts, or the sense and meaning of the term freedom when it is employee in the framework of Criminal Law.

As its publisher states, despite the thematic variety, the texts stress two common ideas: the need to encourage dialogue between different disciplines such as Philosophy and law on the question of the existence of elements prior to positive legislation and the conviction that these elements have their own intelligibility.
