Abstract

Contrary to the proponents of natural rights, legal positivists believe that the law receives its authority from the sovereign and they do not pay serious attention to the moral foundations of the laws. 8It is obvious that such a view has a great impact on the motivations to follow the law and the level of legality or lawlessness of societies. Hart and Austin are the two philosophers who believe in legal positivism. The present research, relying on descriptive-analytical method and comparative study, has tried to analyze the views of these two philosophers and their differences. This analysis has concluded that Austin's legal system is more closely related to criminal law, while Hart's model is mostly civil law oriented. According to Hart, Austin's overemphasis on sovereignty leads to the weakening of laws with the decline of governments. Finally, although both Hart and Austin do not pay attention to moral foundations, it is not the case that morality has no place in the legal perspective of these two. Austin considers moral teachings to be a good interpreter for rules, and Hart considers moral standards to be the most appropriate for coding.
