Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Course in Comparative Jurisprudence Uses and Methods of the Study of Comparative Jurisprudence and Legal History. - Law, a science in its theory and an art in its application, and the more exact our knowledge of it is as a science the more precise and effective will be its application as an art. Jurisprudence has been developed from archaic times by a very slow but distinctly continuous growth. We need not undervalue the labors of analytical jurists, but the fact remains that the historical method is indispensable and becomes the more so as modern research is extended into the origin of all kinds of human life and human institutions. Reference to the views of Professor Paulsen, of Berlin, that law is not an invention of jurists and legislators, but has grown up with the social life of the people as the external form of their union. Originally it is custom; then at a certain stage of development it is separated from the collection of universal obligatory forms of life and action, and becomes a separate field of social compulsion. From that stage on it becomes possibly an object of conscious consideration, and may be even expressed in written statutes and codes and come to look like an artificial product; but whoever considers the subject historically will easily observe that the legal system as a whole is not made. All that is done is to incorporate in a system what has been current and traditional. Occasionally slight adaptations to the changing life and conditions of the people are made. We may say of the legal codes, then, they are not made; they grow. Primitive people did not meet in convention and say, "Let us make a constitution, a civil code, and a code of practice." Such things may be said sometimes today in communities which have behind them thousands of years of legal experience; but even then they can make very little that is new, but generally rearrange and adapt what is immemorially old. If we wish to understand their work fully we must study its sources. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
