The Legal System between Order and Disorder

How have legal philosophers systemized law, and what types of assumptions have they made in undertaking this task? In what sense is law a system, and how is it maintained as such? This translation of a French book answers these two core inter-related questions by surveying and analyzing the theories of a number of important European legal philosophers as well as offering its own distinct theory for viewing the law as a system.

Michel van de Kerchove teaches at the Facultes Universitaires Saint-Louis in Brussels.
