The document discusses the positivist school of law. Positivism developed in contrast to the natural law school to define law based on what exists concretely rather than abstract ideals. The positivist school views law as rules enforced by the state and sees the state as the source of a law's validity. Various jurists have different perspectives within positivism, leading to several schools of thought. Followers of the positivist school believe that a country's laws are the primary binding authority for people, regardless of whether the laws are good or bad.

Analytical legal positivism
Analytical legal positivism is an influential school of legal theory that views law as commands from the state. Key features include treating law as distinct from morality, viewing laws as social facts emanating from sovereign authorities, and emphasizing legislation as the source of law. Major exponents were Jeremy Bentham, who saw law as commands from the sovereign across different aspects, and John Austin, who defined law as commands from a political superior in his influential work The Province of Jurisprudence Determined. While influential, their theories were also subject to criticism regarding abstract rationalism and the relationship between individuals and communities.
Jurisprudence - What is law
This document discusses several schools of thought on what law is:
1. Natural law theory asserts that there are laws immanent in nature that enacted laws should correspond to. An unjust law is not considered a true law if it is contrary to natural law.
2. Legal positivism views that law is defined by the social rules and practices that identify certain norms as laws, such as Jeremy Bentham's view that law is the command of the sovereign backed by threats.
3. Legal realism views that law should be understood how it is practiced rather than statutes, recognizing that results are not fully determined by written law.

Positive Law or Analytical Legal Positivism
Analytical legal positivism is an influential school of legal theory that views law as commands from the state rather than being connected to morality. [1] Jeremy Bentham and John Austin were two of the most important early exponents of this view. [2] Bentham believed that law could be analyzed based on its source, subjects, objects, extent, aspect, force, and expression. Austin built upon Bentham's ideas and is considered the founder of the analytical school, viewing law as commands from a sovereign.

topic : Analytical school (jurisprudence)
The analytical school of jurisprudence views law as a command by a sovereign backed by sanctions. The key exponents were Jeremy Bentham and John Austin. Bentham rejected natural law theories and viewed law through a utilitarian lens, while Austin defined law as the command of the sovereign. Austin is considered the father of the analytical school, which treats law in a positive, scientific manner rather than how it ought to be. The analytical school examines legal concepts, the relationship between law and other forms of law, theories of liability, and legal sources of law.

Presentation
Jurisprudence is thus the study and theory of law. Scholars of jurisprudence, or legal theorists (including legal philosophers and social theorists of law), try to assign a deeper understanding of
the nature of law, of legal reasoning, legal systems and of legal institutions. In these slides, the presenter is concentrating on the ethical school of jurisprudence.
Jurisprudence introduction .
This document discusses the nature, scope, and utility of jurisprudence. It defines jurisprudence as the scientific study of fundamental legal principles. Jurisprudence shapes the legal understanding of law students and helps them develop their own opinions about laws. It connects law to various aspects of society and improves legal interpretation. Studying jurisprudence provides lawyers with a broader perspective, reveals the true intentions of laws, and helps improve legal systems over time. It is an interdisciplinary field related to subjects like ethics, psychology, history, sociology, and economics.
Historical school of jurisprudence
The document summarizes the key concepts of the historical school of jurisprudence. It discusses that historical jurists like Montesquieu, Savigny, and Maine believed that law develops organically over time based on the customs and traditions of the people, rather than being created through legislation or judicial decisions. Savigny's concept of "Volksgeist" described law as emerging from the shared spirit or values of the national community. The historical school rejected theories of natural law and viewed law as continually evolving according to the changing needs and norms of society.
Jurisprudence ch.01 introduction
This document provides an introduction to jurisprudence. It begins by defining jurisprudence as derived from the Latin words for law and wisdom/knowledge. It then discusses key terms like science, philosophy, and law. It examines different typologies and definitions of law provided by eminent jurists. It also explores classifications of jurisprudence, the scope and significance of jurisprudence, and its relationships with other social sciences like psychology, economics, history, sociology, and ethics. The overall purpose is to introduce the reader to the concept and study of jurisprudence at a high level.
Ll.b i j1 u 3 schools of jurisprudence
This document discusses the relationship between jurisprudence and other social sciences. It states that jurisprudence studies law and how legal rules regulate human conduct in society. It is related to other disciplines in the following ways:
- Politics also studies government and its role in administering society. Both jurisprudence and politics examine society.
- Psychology analyzes human mental states while jurisprudence considers external conduct, which depends on internal mental states like intention.
- Economics focuses on wealth and prosperity in society, areas also relevant to jurisprudence given law's role in social and economic well-being.
- History provides context for legal concepts, allowing for historical jurisprudence, while sociology examines society
Basics of Natural school of Jurisprudence
The natural law school of jurisprudence focuses on the idea that just laws are based on morals and ethics that are derived from human nature rather than being arbitrarily created. Natural law has been discussed and interpreted by philosophers from ancient Greece, including Plato, Aristotle, and the Stoics, through medieval scholars like Thomas Aquinas and into the Renaissance period. Key aspects of natural law include it being based on reason, promoting justice and morality, and the idea that unjust laws conflict with fundamental human nature.

JURISPRUDENCE-AUSTIN THEORY OF LAW
John Austin was a 19th century English jurist who is considered the founder of analytical jurisprudence. He entered the army after finishing school and later became a lawyer. In 1826, he was appointed to a chair of jurisprudence at the University of London. His most influential work was "The Province of Jurisprudence Determined" published in 1832, where he analyzed the nature of positive law and sovereignty. Austin defined positive law as a command from a sovereign backed by sanctions for disobedience. He believed law derives from a sovereign who is habitually obeyed but not themselves in the habit of obedience to any other.
Kelson pure theory
Hans Kelsen was an Austrian jurist who developed the "pure theory of law" in the 20th century. He viewed legal science as a pyramid of norms with a basic norm (Grundnorm) at the apex, and subordinate norms controlled by norms above them. Kelsen's theory aimed to reduce confusion caused by natural law theory by treating law as a normative science rather than a natural science. However, critics argue that Kelsen's theory lacks sociological foundation and practical applicability, and provides no solution for conflicts arising from ideological differences.

Law_Bentham_Austin
The document discusses key aspects of legal positivism and natural law theory. It begins by explaining legal positivism, noting that positivists like Bentham and Austin see law as commands from a sovereign backed by sanctions. Bentham's principle of utility holds that laws should aim to maximize happiness. Austin defines law as the command of the sovereign, and sees sanctions as essential for enforcing laws. The document then discusses natural law theory, which sees just laws as reflecting basic principles of human nature and morality. Overall, the summary outlines some of the central philosophical debates around the nature and sources of law.
Jurisprudence - Natural Law
This document provides an overview of natural law theory, including its origins in ancient Greek philosophy and its development through thinkers like Aquinas, Grotius, and Locke. It discusses two main types of natural law theory: a theory of morality that argues moral propositions can be objectively true or false and are derived from human nature; and a theory of law that argues there is an overlap between law and morality such that legal validity depends at least partly on moral content. The document then examines conceptual naturalism as a form of natural law theory of law, outlining classical naturalism's view that human laws are only valid if consistent with natural law, deriving authority from it. It notes criticisms of conceptual naturalism but argues these

Austins theory of analytical positivism
John Austin developed a theory of legal positivism based on the idea that law is a command from a sovereign, backed by sanctions. He defined law as "a rule laid down for the guidance of an intelligent being by an intelligent being having power over him." Austin believed laws should have four key characteristics to be considered "positive law": they must be commands, include sanctions, create duties, and come from a sovereign power. He argued sovereignty resides in whichever entity receives habitual obedience within a society and is not subordinate to any other. While influential, Austin's theory was criticized for being too focused on commands and sanctions without acknowledging other influences on law or the role of judicial decisions and customs.
difference between law and jurisprudence
Law consists of rigid rules that govern human conduct derived from authoritative sources and applied to factual situations. Jurisprudence, or legal theory, is the theoretical study of law that examines writers' approaches rather than defining practical types of law or their differences. It questions whether law must be derived from specific sources or have practical application.
kelson theory
Hans Kelsen was an Austrian jurist who developed the "pure theory of law", which views law as a hierarchical system of norms that are ultimately grounded in a basic norm (Grundnorm). According to Kelsen, law should be studied scientifically as a normative order separate from political, social, or ethical considerations. He conceptualized law as a "normative science" rather than a natural science. Kelsen's theory proposes that the validity of legal norms derives from their conformity to higher norms, with the Grundnorm sitting at the top as the ultimate source of validity that cannot be questioned ethically, politically, or religiously.
Chapter 1 jurisprudence
1) Jurisprudence is defined as the study of law, including its meaning, types, and relationship to other social sciences.
2) There are two types of law: god-made (natural) law that is universal, and man-made (positive) law that is created by humans to regulate society. Jurisprudence focuses on positive law.
3) Positive law can be understood as "law as it is" - existing rules and statutes, or in the abstract - fundamental principles common across legal systems. Most contemporary jurists see jurisprudence as the study of law in the abstract sense rather than concrete statutes.
Jurisprudence its meaning, nature and scope
This document discusses the meaning, nature, and scope of jurisprudence. It defines jurisprudence as the knowledge of law and explains that it is the study of the sources, validity, objectives, functions, and effects of fundamental legal principles. Several jurists are cited defining jurisprudence as the observation of divine and human things, the philosophy of positive law, the science of the first principles of law, and the scientific study of the union of legal rules. The document also outlines different types of jurisprudence according to various jurists and lists several influential books written on the topic.
Analytical Positivism And H. L. A. Hart S Concept Of Law
This document provides an overview of analytical positivism and H.L.A. Hart's concept of law. It discusses the key thinkers and schools associated with analytical positivism, including Jeremy Bentham, John Austin, and the Austinian school. Bentham defined law as the will or command of the sovereign. Austin built upon Bentham's theory and developed his own imperative theory of law, viewing law as the command of the sovereign backed by sanctions. Austin is considered the founder of the analytical school/positivism, which takes a positive approach to analyzing existing laws rather than ideals.

Separation of Morality and Law
This essay tends to explain the difference between morality and law. These both have a lot of differences within each other but still they have a lot more things in common. This essay will concentrate in the definition of law and its importance in front of morality and social norms. The concentration of work toward this essay is concentrated in the evaluation of the position of both in the theories of the classic perspectives and Harts’ opinion that the positivists failed to define law containing all the debates and the other fact Hart has given and what others have said.
The Oxford English Dictionary defines the law as :
‘The body of rules, whether proceeding from formal enactment or from custom, which a particular state or community recognizes as binding on its members or subjects.’
That this should be regarded as the definition of law for the English language is evidence of the influence legal positivism has upon the philosophy of law in our culture. The central themes of positivism are the contentions: firstly, that the existence of law rests upon identifiable social facts and, secondly, that it is necessary to maintain a conceptual distinction between law and morality. In this essay I will examine the positivist assertion that law is identifiable independently of morality, with a particular focus on the theory of H.L.A Hart.

Essay on Justice
Essay on Justice
Justice is such an elusive concept that it hardly seems worthwhile for a legal system to strive to achieve it .
Justice is something that we all want from a Law and believe should be an integral part in any legal system. However, the meaning of Justice is very difficult to define. There are many aspects of justice that we may question about; i.e. is a particular law just? Is the legal system just? Much of the issue of justice is very controversial and raises questions such as whether the combination of Law and system produce a just result? Justice has a definition as follows: The quality of being just or fair, the act of determining rights and assigning rewards or...show more content...The logical extension of this view is that the Legal rules of a country can be broken if they do not conform to moral Laws, a view that was favoured by St. Thomas Aquinas. This theory of Natural Law can be contrasted with Positivism. Natural lawyers conflict with positivist thinkers who believe that if the Law is made according to correct procedure, then it should be followed however much it conflicts with morality. Positivists like Kelsen argue that Law and morality are entirely separate concepts, and believes that justice is abstract, therefore it is has no concept in Law. Kelsen also argued that the concept of justice is too vague to be defined and that even if law is immoral, it still should be followed. Austin s view stems from the positivist argument that Law is Law because of sovereignty and procedures. Professor Hart also considers law and morality to be separate. He believed that Law should be based on logical ideas that produce correct decisions from the

Law according to the john austin vaibhav goyal
John Austin is considered as the “Father of English Jurisprudence”. He is the founder of the Analytical school. He was greatly influenced by the scientific treatment of the Roman law and, therefore, he started scientific arrangement of the English law too. He applied the English method and avoided the metaphysical method which was prevalent in Germany and had German characteristics. Like Bentham, Austin believed that “law” is only an aggregate of individual laws. In his view, all laws are rules the majority of which regulate behaviour. These are either directives or those imposed by general opinion. A directive, whether general or particular, is the expression or intimation of your wish “that another shall do or forbear, issued in the form of a command”. Accordingly, a law in its most comprehensive signification is “rule laid down for the guidance of an intelligent being by an intelligent being having power over him”.
2 3 Positivism.pptx
This lecture discusses the analytical school of jurisprudence. It introduces some of the key thinkers in this school, including Bentham, Austin, and Kelsen. Bentham and Austin viewed law in a positivist manner, focusing only on the positive laws enacted by the sovereign state. Austin argued that only commands from the sovereign could be considered law. Kelsen later developed the "pure theory of law," removing any evaluative elements and focusing solely on the structure of legal systems and hierarchy of legal norms. The analytical school takes a scientific, non-ethical approach to understanding law as it exists in reality.

Need of positivist school of law
- 1. Need of Positivist school of law . Definition of law always has been a hard thing to do. There are different approaches to to study law. For this reason, the definition of law given by one jurist may not similar to one given by other. These approaches are natural, analytical, historical, sociological, realist, Marxist. School of jurisprudence is based on these approaches. There are two type of school of jurisprudence ie natural school and positivisim ie positivist school of law. Natural law school is based on natural law theory. As Natural Law School defined law in abstract terms, Positivism was developed to defy Natural Law Theory mysticism and abstract ideals. Positivism relates to theory, which deals with “Existing Law” - law which physically exists. Positivist law school is based on positivisim. Positivism therefore indicates to “law which is having concrete structure or shape”, and as such can be perceived or enforced, or has tangible meaning. Against Natural Law, Positivism advocated for concrete law. It urged that state is a source for validity of law, at least it formalizes the law as a rule which is enforced by state. However, various jurists used positivism from different perspectives, so that under the umbrella of “Positivism” several schools of thought sprouted. Positivist law school renders out thoughts such as good or bad laws, and instead places the law itself as the reason why we enjoy rights in the first place. Thus, one who follows the positivist school of law would hold the belief that no matter what, the laws of a nation or country are the first and most powerful binding forces that a person operates under.
