Definition

  • Scholars have historically defined law and society as two distinctive, albeit related, realms of meaning and conduct. Jurists construed law as separate and relatively autonomous and understood that it originated in formal institutions and radiated outward to society. [Source: Encyclopedia of Law & Society: American and Global Perspectives; Penetration of Law]
