Sociology of Law

About the author

Georges Gurvitch (1894-1965) held the chair of sociology at the Sorbonne from 1949 until his death. During the war years, he taught at the New School for Social Research. He was the author of numerous works in the sociology of law including Le Temps Present et l'Idue du Droit Social, L'Experience Juridique et la Philosophe Pluraliste do Droit, and The Bill of Social Rights.

Summary

Gurvitch's Sociology of Law shines as a beacon in the ongoing quest for a transformative vision of law. The new introduction by Alan Hunt discusses Gurvitch's place in the history of the sociology of law and the context in which his works should be placed. This book will be of interest to students of sociology and law.
