The author of ‘The Enforcement of Morals’ is :

  • A.Lord Devlin
  • B.Lord Lloyd
  • C.H.L.A. Hart
  • D.Lon Fuller

Answer: A

The Enforcement of Morals is by Lord Devlin.

Patrick Devlin delivered his Maccabaean Lecture in 1959, arguing that society may use the criminal law to protect its shared morality, and published it with related essays as The Enforcement of Morals (1965). The lecture was a response to the Wolfenden Report's recommendation to decriminalise private homosexual acts.

H. L. A. Hart answered Devlin in Law, Liberty and Morality (1963), giving rise to the famous Hart-Devlin debate. Lon Fuller wrote The Morality of Law, and Lord Lloyd is known for his Introduction to Jurisprudence.
