The Law Unclad, Free of all A Priori or which is its Own A Priori

This article is one of a series devoted to the study of a priori in law. It is part of the ANTECEDENT research project supported by a Chair of the French government-funded Initiative of Excellence at Université Côte d'Azur. 2 The aim of the project is to revisit the law through its preunderstandings, to leave behind the law only better to return to it, propose an "antecedent" theory of law and apply theoretical reflections to major topical issues. It is based on the following general hypothesis: if a priori are everywhere, and if the law is capable of dealing with a priori, then the law is everywhere, and not just where we want to allow it to be. Having studied the vocabulary and grammar of a priori, a priori methods, we devote this fifth article to examining the prospect of a law unclad, free of all a priori or which is its own a priori.
