商品描述
This book aims to identify the sociological reasons that resulted in the perceived lack of authority of precedents in civil law systems, starting from the premise that common law systems rely on precedents, while civil law systems do not. The reasoning is based on the sociology of law, mainly on Max Weber's theory, legal theory, and constitutional law.
English common law, seen by Weber as a law devoid of formal rationality mainly because it does not allow for generalization and comprehensiveness, became a predictable system through stare decisis. This serves to highlight not only that it is not to be confused with common law but especially to clarify that "binding precedents" are necessary as the law moves away from calculability.
The transformation of civil law due to the impact of constitutionalism, the increasingly widespread use of general clauses, and the evolution of the theory of interpretation eliminated the pretensions of logical positivism and, consequently, the predictability upon which it would be achievable. However, if the law contemplated by Weber ceased to exist and the new law came to depend largely on the subjectivity of the judge, this does not mean that society could remain helpless and devoid of guarantees of predictability and equality, as the new profile of civil law could not be compatible with a coherent legal order and a rational distribution of justice.
In the end, the book seeks to demonstrate the fundamentality of precedent for the unity and development of law, clarity and generality, promotion of equality, institutional strengthening, limitation of state power, predictability, economic rationality, respect for the law, and increased personal responsibility.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本書旨在識別導致民法系統中先例權威感缺乏的社會學原因，前提是普通法系統依賴先例，而民法系統則不然。這一推理基於法律社會學，主要是馬克斯·韋伯的理論、法律理論和憲法法。
韋伯認為，英國普通法是一種缺乏形式理性的法律，主要因為它不允許概括和全面性，通過遵循先例（stare decisis）成為一個可預測的系統。這不僅突顯了它與普通法的不同，尤其是澄清了「具約束力的先例」在法律逐漸遠離可計算性時的必要性。
由於憲政主義的影響、一般條款的日益普遍使用以及解釋理論的演變，民法的轉變消除了邏輯實證主義的假設，並因此消除了其可預測性。然而，如果韋伯所構想的法律不再存在，而新法律在很大程度上依賴於法官的主觀性，這並不意味著社會可以無助於缺乏可預測性和平等的保障，因為民法的新形態無法與一致的法律秩序和合理的正義分配相容。
最終，本書旨在證明先例對法律的統一性和發展、清晰性和普遍性、平等的促進、制度的強化、國家權力的限制、可預測性、經濟理性、對法律的尊重以及個人責任的增加的重要性。
