Abstract
This paper is a reply to the Prof. Ihori's 'Economic Effects of Public Policy'. In this paper, firstly we take a glance at the
(historical) difficulty of connecting jurisprudence and public finance studies. Secondary, we try to find the core of the Ihori's argument and it can be summarized as 'the concern for the coherence of a policy'. Thirdly, examining that core argument of Prof. Ihori. we focus on the concepts such as politics, leadership and government (that is 'legislators') used in his argument so as to connect the context of this paper to the jurisprudence, especially the legisprudence. In this substantive section, we examine the normative premise of Prof. Ihori's argument and try to show the necessity of considering the problem of 'how to control the legislators'. And lastly, we put some external comments on Ihori's argument, especially about the absence of 'power' and prospect for the speculation into the anthropological foundation of legislators.
