Morris Raphael Cohen (Belarusian: Мо́рыс Рафаэ́ль Ко́эн; July 25, 1880 – January 28, 1947) was an American judicial philosopher, lawyer, and legal scholar who united pragmatism with logical positivism and linguistic analysis. This union coalesced into the "objective relativism" fermenting at Columbia University before and during the early twentieth-century interwar period.^[1] He was father to Felix S. Cohen and Leonora Cohen Rosenfield.
