dc.description.abstractLaw is of an essentially social character. The set of legal norms enacted by the legislator for the orderly regulation of social relationship between the several members of the community, serves to co-ordinate human activity. Therefore law should in no way be regarded as a static set of legal rules, but as a continuous socio-legal process. The study of law in this sense: as a continuous evolution, as found interpreted, applied created and evolved to the point when it acquires legally binding validity, ought to be encouraged. Such a study may perhaps lead us to a systematic knowledge of the impact of law on social conduct and may possibly show us how society, through its various manifestations, helps to fashion the legal norms which, in tum, come to be enforced by organized society.en_GB
