Luhmann, Niklas,1927-1998.

A sociological theory of law[electronic resource] /by Niklas Luhmann ; translated by Elizabeth King-Utz and Martin Albrow ; edited by martin Albrow. - 2nd ed. - Abingdon, Oxon [U.K.] :Routledge,2014. - xlvii, 421 p.

Includes bibliographical references and index.

1. Classical beginnings of the sociology of law -- 2. The development of law : foundation of a sociological theory -- 3. Law as structure of society -- 4. Positive law -- 5. Social change through positive law.

"Niklas Luhmann is recognised as a major social theorist, and his treatise on the sociology of law is a classic text. For Luhmann, law provides the framework of the state, lawyers are the main human resourced for the state, and legal theory provides the most suitable base from which to theorize on the nature of society. He explores the concept of law in the light of a general theory of social systems, showing the important part law plays in resolving fundamental problems a society may face. He then goes on to discuss in detail how modern 'positive' -- as opposed to 'natural' -- law comes to fulfil this function. The work as a whole is not only a contribution to legal sociology, but a major work in social theory. With a revised translation, and a new introduction by Martin Albrow. "--
