Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Jurisprudence Our lives are controlled, to an extent which we do not measure without effort, by rules of conduct which are imposed upon us by our environment and which we may not contravene without endangering our existence, our welfare or our happiness. We do not ordinarily realize the multiplicity of these rules or their coercive operation, because our acceptance of them is largely unconscious and our obedience to them, the leading of a normal or regular life, is largely automatic. When, however, we force ourselves to consider all these rules, and when we attempt to classify them, we see that some of them, such as the rules of healthful living, represent primarily the adaptation of our conduct to our physical environment; others, such as the rules of thrift, adaptation to what may conveniently be termed our physical-social environment, that is, to those conditions which result from the interaction and reciprocal modification of human society and its environment; while a third group of rules, which may be termed social, seems to be imposed upon us by the sentiments or the will of our fellow-men. When rules which we assign to the physical or to the physical-social group appear also, as they often do, in the distinctively social group - when, for example, we find that violations of the rules of health or of thrift are denounced as immoral and are in some instances penalized by law - it still remains true that these rules are not primarily social.
