A Sociological Theory of Law

Více o knize

Exploring the intersection of law and social theory, this treatise delves into how law serves as the framework for the state and addresses societal challenges. Luhmann emphasizes the role of lawyers as key resources and contrasts modern 'positive' law with 'natural' law. His analysis offers insights into legal sociology while contributing significantly to broader social theory. The revised translation includes a new introduction by Martin Albrow, enhancing the understanding of Luhmann's influential ideas.
