Who propounded ‘Minimum content theory of natural law’ ?
H. L. A. Hart
The idea of a minimum content of natural law was put forward by H. L. A. Hart in his book The Concept of Law (1961), in the chapter on law and morals.
Hart argued that, given certain truisms about human nature and the world, such as human vulnerability, approximate equality, limited altruism, limited resources and limited understanding and strength of will, every legal system must contain some basic rules protecting persons, property and promises.
Lon Fuller is known for the inner morality of law, John Finnis for basic goods and practical reasonableness, and Julius Stone for sociological jurisprudence, so none of them framed this minimum content thesis.
Hence, H. L. A. Hart.
