Topic: The Concept of Law


  
 The Essential Concept of Law
The rule of law is treated primarily as an expression of the liberal democratic concept of the limited or self-constrained state.
The heart of the chapter is thus spent explicating the role of the state in upholding the rule of law, as well as the ways in which the concept of rule of law frames the various legal roles and responsibilities of the state in both the public and private (civil) legal arenas.
It is hard to say what the essential concept of law might be, given the variability of legal forms, and their cultural and political origins.

 The Concept of National Law and the Rule of Recognition
The concept of national law is that there is a body of law in the United States that is made by officials across jurisdictions, legal scholars, and scholarly institutions, which constitutes law despite the fact that it is not binding in, and is not necessarily made by, officials of a deciding jurisdiction.
National law is law because, as I show, under the practice of the legal profession, particularly the courts, the rules of national law (and not simply the reasons for those rules) are invoked as legal rules of decision.
Examples of national law are the rules that a donative promise is enforceable if relied upon, that an acceptance is effective on dispatch, and that the remedy for breach of a bargain contract is expectation damages.

 H.L.A. Hart's The Concept of Law
He argues that to describe all laws as coercive orders is to mischaracterize the purpose and function of some laws and is to misunderstand their content, mode of origin, and range of application.
Hart argues that in any legal system there may be cases in which existing laws are vague or indeterminate and that judicial discretion may be necessary in order to clarify existing laws in these cases.
H.L.A. Hart’s The Concept of Law (1961) is an analysis of the relation between law, coercion, and morality, and is an attempt to clarify the question of whether all laws may be properly conceptualized as coercive orders or as moral commands.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Law
A classification of law, as limited to law administered in the courts, and familiar to Roman jurisprudence, is that of law in the strict sense and equity (jus strictum et jus aequum et bonum).
Human laws, however, must be subordinate to the Divine law, or at least, must not contradict it, for human authority is only a participation in the supreme Divine power of government, and it is impossible that God could give human beings the right to issue laws that are unreasonable and in contravention of His will.
All laws which inflict penalties for violation of the law are called penal, whether they themselves directly define the manner and amount of penalty, or make it the duty of the judge to inflict according to his judgment a just punishment.

 LEAVING THE HART-DWORKIN DEBATE
There may be agreement among positivists on the concept of law, while disagreement between, for example, inclusive and exclusive legal positivism is best understood as a disagreement about application conditions of the concept, often in the context of determinations of law in specific jurisdictions.
Yet the concept of law, on this kind of hermeneutic understanding, is not a static definition to be imposed onto the data of life under what is said to be law as a classificatory or comparative concept.
Several factors surrounding official recognition of law require deeper explanation under an expanded conception of the practices and identity of legal officials in an argument for the application conditions of the concept of law.

 Concept of law in China
In this case, the concept of law is focused on the Nature of Law, i.e., law as an instrument of the ruling class.
Interpretation of law is deemed as a source of law in China, too; and thus, conflicts of laws and interpretations exist in such cases.
On 29 May 1991, the “Decision of Application of Administrative Litigation Law of the PRC” by the Supreme Court defined that “laws in Section 4, Article 12 are norms which are enacted, adopted and announced by the NPC and its Standing Committee”.

 Natural Law [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
Accordingly, an unjust law can be legally valid, but it cannot provide an adequate justification for use of the state coercive power and is hence not obligatory in the fullest sense; thus, an unjust law fails to realize the moral ideals implicit in the concept of law.
On his view, a human law (i.e., that which is promulgated by human beings) is valid only insofar as its content conforms to the content of the natural law; as Aquinas puts the point: "[E]very human law has just so much of the nature of law as is derived from the law of nature.
Unjust laws may obligate in a technical legal sense, on Finnis's view, but they may fail to provide moral reasons for action of the sort that it is the point of legal authority to provide.

The Concept of Law is a thorough-going examination of the philosophical foundations of the Western legal tradition.
Hart proposes that law is a union of primary and secondary rules.
It is a philosophical examination of the basis for law.

 The Concept of International Law
Law is a system of legal relations which condition social action to serve the common interest.
The social function of international law is the same as that of other forms of law.
International law takes a customary form, in which society orders itself through its experience of self-ordering, and a legislative form (treaties).

 Lex Extropium
Individual liberty and reciprocity are the highest values in an extropian approach to law and legal issues.
As with every other aspect of their own lives and society, however, they question the current state of the law and legal thinking, look for the best in the past and the present and seek to develop new modes of thinking and acting to transcend bounds that others may accept without doubt.
They seek to free the law from this confining assumption as much as possible and see the law more as a fluid ground of action for ordering the affairs of individuals on a consensual basis.

 The Concept of Law (Clarendon Law Series) - From Monitor-Data.com Store
First published in 1961, The Concept of Law is the most important and original work of legal philosophy written this century.
But Hart fails to connect the "minimum content of natural law" with his analysis of a "rule of recongition" that allows a legal system to exist.
Hart acknowledges a "minimum content of natural law" that explains the purpose of law as responding to certain human needs (bodily vulnerability, limited altruism, etc.).

 Law
Law is written; in this way, law assumes an independent character beyond the centralized authority that adminsters it.
Unacceptable behavior outside the sphere of revenge initially did not come under the institution of law: it was only much later that disputes that didn't involve retribution would be included in law.
You can still see the powerful revenge aspect of the law in famous cases such as the Polly Klaas killing in northern California.

 Case Law Research, The Concept of Case Law
Case law in this sense means the written opinions of appellate courts deciding a point of law.
There are broad areas in American law which are still relatively free of legislation, especially in areas of private law obligations (contracts and torts), and personal and real property.

 Jurisprudence - the concept of law and the unconscious
Concept of Law is, ostensibly, devoted to a consideration of the three recurrent issues which, Hart believed, preoccupy legal theorists.
These issues concerned the relationship between law and force, law and morality and the nature of rules.
And if law were totally divorced from poetic processes then from where would the notion of ‘obedience’ emerge ?

 The Hindu Business Line : Concept paper on Company Law: Ministry begins rule-making exercise
The concept paper which empowers the Central Government to make rules, de-links procedural aspects of law from substantive law.
Ministry sources reiterated that the thought process while adopting the norms for having rules was that frequent amendments to Act is not required, just like the SEBI Act, where orders are issued through guidelines and monitored through the same.
For example, the procedure for share buybacks will be in the rules.

Norms of justice do not actually relate to laws themselves, but are actually concerned with the application of these laws in certain cases.

 Copyright & Patents: patent law- business concept
But i would appreciate you making any general observation about all the countries, and how the patent laws of one particular country is legally valid in another country.
As far as I know copyright for software code is now allowed (although I am not an expert in that field!) The problem has always been that many copyright laws only protected "works of art".
I heard of an international treaty regarding this and I also heard, there are 80 countries signed to such an agreement.

 Ancient Law - Professor Bernard Hibbitts
We will examine not merely the ancient "law in the books" (the formal written codes that have received so much historical and philological attention over the years) but also the ancient "law in action" (the performances, rituals and ceremonies that created legal rights and duties in all these proto-literate societies).

 Hart’s Concept of Law
’s view of law as commands seems to explain only one type of rule: primary rules that either require or prohibit certain actions – such as the rule prohibiting murder.
The Conventionality Thesis: The criteria of legality in any conceptually possible legal system are fully defined by a conventional rule of recognition that is practiced by officials.
  Hart takes the Austinian theory of law as a springboard for developing the fundaments of his own view.

 The Concept of Law
Hart analyses the concept of law and in the process discusses such important topics as the foundations of the legal system, law as the union of primary and secondary rules, the sovereign and the subject, the distinction between the notions of law, justice, and morality, the rule of recognition, and international law.
The postscript along with detailed notes and extensive references, make this edition an indispensable resource for scholars and students of law, philosophy, political theory, and all sections of the legal fraternity.
The book furthers our understanding of law, coercion, and morality as different but related phenomena.

 SSRN-The Social Construction of the Concept of Law: A Reply to Julie Dickson by Frederick Schauer
In Evaluation and Legal Theory, Julie Dickson argues, against me and against Hart, that the beneficial moral consequences attaching to accepting one or another concept of law should have no place in deciding which concept of law is true.
In response, I argue that a concept of law, as both Dickson and I acknowledge, is subject to change over time, and may vary across cultures.

 Jiri Priban, "Doing What Comes Naturally, Or A Walk on the Wild Side?: Remarks on Stanley Fish's ...
In spite of acceptance of many standpoints of Stanley Fish, the author of this article concludes by a critique of law's closure as defined by Stanley Fish and by a rejection of the restrictive function of force in the legal context which dismantles law's heterogeneity and the art of human memory.
The text is centred around a difference and arguments between the anti-foundationalist, pragmatic concept of law as worked out by Stanley Fish, and the theoretical-ideological adoption of post-structuralism by some of the most representative members of the Critical Legal Studies Movement.
However, Fish's concept of law goes beyond the limited borders of legal theory and, paradoxically, shows some common features with the general social systems theory of the German sociologist, Niklas Luhmann.

 The Concept of Law
Book Description: First published in 1961, The Concept of Law is the most important and original work of legal philosophy written this century.
Containing Hart's final and powerful response to Dworkin in addition to the revised text of the original The Concept of Law, this thought-provoking and persuasively argued volume is essential reading for lawyers and philosophers throughout the world.
Hart demonstrates that Dworkin's views are in fact strikingly similar to his own and in a final analysis, Hart's response leaves Dworkin's criticisms considerably weakened and his positions largely in question.
