Lectures on the Relation between Law and Public Opinion in England
A body of law, associated with the French legal system, governing disputes involving the state and its officials through special tribunals rather than the ordinary courts.
These summary statements of the authority, both legislative and judicial, given to persons or bodies either closely connected with, or subject to, or part of the Government of the day, are enough to prove that the Insurance Act creates in England a system bearing a marked resemblance to the administrative law of France.
Institutes of Roman Law
The secular dimension of Roman law, meaning valid custom recognized and enforceable by human authority; distinguished from Fas and further divided into civil, criminal, and administrative law.
The problem of the ultimate source and sanction of Jus was not one that troubled the Roman to any appreciable degree at any period of history.
The question as to what particular cases shall fall under each of these three heads of Civil, Criminal and Administrative Law is one that is answered differently by different political societies;
The most signal of the omissions is the neglect to give an adequate treatment to the stage of Roman Law which yields to no other in importance—the stage at which it passes from the religious to the secular sphere, from Fas to Jus.
The Rights of War and Peace
The chapter's central legal-philosophical concept, analyzed in its several senses of justice, moral quality, faculty, and rule.
Civilians call a faculty that Right, which every man has to his own;
In which sense, right is a moral quality annexed to the person, justly entitling him to possess some particular privilege, or to perform some particular act.
There is also a third signification of the word Right, which has the same meaning as Law, taken in its most extensive sense, to denote a rule of moral action, obliging us to do what is proper.
Law in a Free State
The body of law and administration concerned with crime, discussed as a socialistic function of the State that must be kept efficient for now.
” The administration of a criminal code and the defence of the country against external enemies are, at present, socialistic functions.
