In this paper I summarize the main ideas of Alasdair MacIntyre on Natural Law. I begin with an overview of ethical and political ideas dealt with by MacIntyre. Then I define his position in the debate between current legal philosophers before moving on to his position on debate on Natural Law and highlighting some difficulties in his conception. However, I close by focusing on how many of MacIntyre's ideas can shed light on solutions to current problems.
