According to Shapiro, law, like all plans (laws for him are plans), are typically defeasible. Notwithstanding, they are defeasible in their own terms, because the law itself claims the right to determine the conditions of its own defeasibility. Laws do not have to be followed come what may. (SHAPIRO, Scott. Legality. Harvard: HUP, 2011. 202p.)
The book is a pearl. It is very good.
It is a pitty that brazilian authors translate defeasible with the term 'derrotável'.
