title = "Automated reasoning in normative detachment structures with ideal conditions",
abstract = "In this article we introduce a logical structure for normative reasoning, called Normative Detachment Structure with Ideal Conditions, that can be used to represent the content of certain legal texts in a normalized way. The structure exploits the deductive properties of a system of bimodal logic able to distinguish between ideal and actual normative statements, as well as a novel formalization of conditional normative statements able to capture interesting cases of contrary-to-duty reasoning and to avoid deontic paradoxes. Furthermore, we illustrate how the theoretical framework proposed can be mechanized to get an automated procedure of query-answering on an example of legal text.",
