STRUCTURA DREPTULUI

The concepts with which the theory of law operates are far from being the result of some
philosophical speculations, without any connection with the concrete relations of the social life.
Although eminently deductive, the science of law, as a whole, does not operate only deductively,
without reference to facts, data of reality. In last analysis, the theoretical constructions formulated by
the science of law (or legal sociology) are the result of a succession of inductive and deductive steps.
A good knowledge, explanation and interpretation of law (of the legal phenomenon, more broadly)
requires an appropriate methodology, based on which to achieve a scientific understanding of the
mechanism of the social action of law, its functions, essence, content and form. In the conditions of
the current scientific and technological evolution, there are happening profound transformations – of
structure, of method, of vision – which determine that also the scientific research go through a fruitful
mutation. From this methodological perspective, the author aims to address some essential aspects
of the structure of law.
