Focusing on legal structures as they developed in Western societies, Form and Function in a Legal System looks at four paradigms of the forms of a varied selection of functional legal units: legislatures and courts, statutory rules, contracts and property, legal methodologies for interpreting law, and enforcive devices such as sanctions and remedies. In contrast to the rules-based analysis made prominent by legal thinkers such as H. L. A. Hart and Hans Kelsen, the form-oriented analysis provides a new and intellectually stimulating understanding on how law can be conceptually approached.
