The Science of Law and Lawmaking, Being an Introduction to Law: A General View of Its Forms and Substance, and a Discussion of the Question of Codification (Classic Reprint) - Hardcover
Synopsis
The Science of Law and Lawmaking explains how law grows, and why codifying it may misrepresent the living practice of justice.
This book surveys the difference between written statutes and judge-made law, showing how each writes the rules that govern behavior. It argues that codification of case law is a theoretical goal that clashes with how real-world reasoning and decision making actually work in courts.
- Learn how statutes and case law differ in form and substance
- See why language and context matter more in legal interpretation than the words alone
- Discover how legal rules develop from concrete cases to general principles
- Explore the limits and risks of moving from court-made guidance to a single formal code
