== Academic works == MacCormick wrote numerous journal articles and books, concentrating both on law in a European context and the philosophy of law. Works such as ''Legal Reasoning and Legal Theory'' (1978), ''H. L. A. Hart'' (1981), ''Legal Right and Social Democracy: Essays in Legal and Political Philosophy'' (1984), ''An Institutional Theory of Law: New Approaches to Legal Positivism'' (with [[Ota Weinberger|O. Weinberger]]) (1986), ''Questioning Sovereignty: Law, State, and Nation in the European Commonwealth'' (1999), ''Rhetoric and The Rule of Law'' (2005) and ''Institutions of Law'' (2007) all convey his particular brand of legal philosophy. ''Legal Reasoning and Legal Theory'' answers many of the [[Ronald Dworkin|Dworkin]]ian critiques of the [[H. L. A. Hart|Hart]]ian conception of law, and it is seen by some as showing a middle ground between the two. ''Questioning Sovereignty: Law, State, and Nation in the European Commonwealth'' (1999) examines the transformation of sovereignty as consequence of constitutional pluralism in the European Union.<ref name="Jaklic 2014 p.">{{cite book |last=Jaklic |first=Klemen |title=Constitutional Pluralism in the EU |date=2014-01-09 |publisher=Oxford University Press |isbn=978-0-19-870322-8 |page= |doi=10.1093/acprof:oso/9780198703228.003.0002}}</ref> His final book was ''Practical Reason in Law and Morality'' (2008).<ref>{{cite journal |title=Natural Law, Practical Reason and Autonomous Persons β A Critical Review of Neil MacCormick: Practical Reason in Law and Morality.
