Knjiga Filozofija prava rezultat je, s jedne strane, mog višegodišnjeg filozofskog istraživanja i promišljanja fenomenâ koje pokriva ova disciplina praktičke filozofije, te, s druge, predavanja istoimenog predmeta i interaktivnog rada sa studentima završnih godina dodiplomskog studija Pravnog fakulteta Univerziteta u Zenici. Naravno, upućena je najviše njima – studentima Pravnog fakulteta Univerziteta u Zenici, kao i svim drugim studentima koji slušaju ovaj ili sličan predmet na pravnim fakultetima u Bosni i Hercegovini i široj regiji, te onim čitaocima koje zanima filozofska refleksija prava. U svakom slučaju, tokom pisanja ove knjige nastojao sam stil i metodologiju izlaganja tako prilagoditi kako bi ona uistinu bila udžbenik iz filozofije prava koji će pomoći studentima u savladavanju gradiva predviđenog nastavnim planom i programom. Takva orijentacija, bez obzira na brojne teškoće, podrazumijevala je zauzimanje jedne, uvjetno govoreći, nezavisne pozicije spram vlastitih vrijednosnih i svakih drugih stavova u i oko filozofije, posebice filozofije i aksiologije prava.
