Abstract

The paper deals with the argument from legislative intention, asking when it is justified to infer a legislative intention from the silence of the legislature itself. The paper shows that, in such a context, the argument is parasitic on an argument from literal meaning and is susceptible of different uses committed to different conceptions of the legislature.
