Brian Tamanaha is William Gardiner Hammond Professor of Law at Washington University, St Louis School of Law. He is the author of eight books, including the prize-winning A General Jurisprudence of Law and Society (2001).
This book articulates an empirically grounded theory of law applicable throughout history and across different societies. Unlike natural law theory or analytical jurisprudence, which are narrow, abstract, ahistorical, and detached from society, Tamanaha's theory presents a holistic vision of law within society, evolving in connection with social, cultural, economic, political, ecological, and technological factors. He revives a largely forgotten theoretical perspective on law that runs from Montesquieu through the legal realists to the present. This book explains why the classic question 'what is law?' has never been resolved, and casts doubt on theorists' claims about necessary and universal truths about law. This book develops a theory of law as a social institution with varying forms and functions, tracing law from hunter-gatherer societies to the modern state and beyond. Tamanaha's theory accounts for social influences on law, legal influences on society, law and domination, multifunctional governmental uses of law, legal pluralism, international law, and other legal aspects largely overlooked in jurisprudence.

花瞭三天功夫重讀瞭一遍,找到幾個問題點。
評分雖然倡導現實社會法理論,但風格非常analytical。可能是作者最優秀的法理論作品,勾勒“一般法理學”失敗根源的同時,提齣法律是什麼的答案應當迴溯於共同體中人們習慣性稱之為“法”的規範。第三章(有關法律的必然與普遍真理?)發錶於今年Ratio Juris
評分塔瑪納哈最有理論野心的一本書瞭,提倡基於社會-曆史的realistic法理論,但似乎他並沒搞清楚法哲學分析路徑對本質問題的研究是意圖說明什麼,因此本來是不悖的路徑被簡單對立起來。
