AFTER READING THE ESSAY YOU CAN NAME IT EITHER NUMBER 3 (NEEDS OF LAW IN SOCIETY) OR NUMBER 4 (LET'S LET'S FOLLOW LAW)

“I have gained this from philosophy: that I do without being commanded what others do only from fear of the law.” – Aristotle

I truly believe that our modern society needs Law. Laws are guidelines that set out appropriate behaviour, so we are required to follow this system of rules, in order to keep everything balanced and stabilized. Without the fulfillment of these desired tasks, man simply will become equal to animals – or worse still, allow their darker sides to emerge and control their lives.

Legal Systems of the World

For this purpose every country has a certain system that the all citizens are required to obey: up to date there are about two hundred countries in the world and each of them makes its own Legal System that is based on certain characteristics and factors of the country. The Legal System consists of certain laws and rules that shape the citizen’s morality and behaviour in the society. There are many academic terms describing what “legal system” is but from my point of view the best one is the description by J.H Merryman:

“A legal system is an operating set of legal institutions, procedures, and rules.” [1]

The three most widespread Legal Systems are: Continental Law Legal System, Common Law Legal System and Religious Law Legal System. Each of these legal systems is unique and has its own specific features and individual structure. Let’s take a brief look on each system and see how systems differ from each other or discover their similarities.

Common Law Legal System

History, sources and structure

The common law system prevails in Britain and its former colonies, including Australia, Canada, and the United States. Traditionally, the common law system, as the name implies, was governed not by a code, but by court-made law that developed incrementally over time. It is different from the civil-law system, which is introduced mostly in Europe and in areas colonized by France and Spain.

The body of decisional law based largely on custom as declared by English judges after the Norman Conquest of 1066. The common law doctrine of following precedent, known as stare decisis remains an important component of both the English and American legal systems today. English common law was based primarily on custom, tradition, and precedent rather than a formal written legal code. Over centuries of experience, the common law became the major influence on the development of American criminal law both before and after the American Revolution. After the Revolution, the common law continued to be the basic law of most states. However, today almost all common law principles and rules have been enacted by legislative bodies into statutes with modern variations. ). One of the interesting characteristics of the system is that the common-law system allows judges to look to other jurisdictions or to draw upon past or present judicial experience for analogies to help in making a decision. This flexibility allows common law to deal with changes that lead to unanticipated controversies. At the same time, stare decisis provides certainty, uniformity, and predictability and makes for a stable legal environment. Under common law, all citizens, including the highest-ranking officials of the government, are subject to the same set of laws, and the exercise of government power is limited by those laws. The judiciary may review legislation, but only to determine whether it conforms to constitutional requirements [2] .

Civil Law Legal System

History, sources and structure

Civil law may be defined as that legal tradition which has its origin in Roman law, as codified in the Corpus Juris Civilis of Justinian [3] and it is used mostly in European and Asian countries. It is divided into two branches: the codified Roman law and uncodified Roman law. Civil law is highly systematized and structured and relies on declarations of broad, general principles, often ignoring the details [4] .

The Differences and Similarities between the Legal Systems

Common Law and Continental Law have similar aims: to protect individuals, to maximize freedom and control the process of following legal rules.
