Irrespective of whether sociology of law is defined as a sub-discipline of sociology, an approach within legal studies, or a field of research in its own right, it remains intellectually dependent mainly on the traditions, methods and theories of mainstream sociology

Hey buddy here is your answer

The Sociology of Law has its earliest foundations in the scholarship of Max Weber and Karl Renner, amongst many other distinguished contributors, including Émile Durkheim and Vilhelm Aubert in the 20th century.

The field aims to transcend traditional legal boundaries by bringing into consideration the role of society and its system of values and norms. Despite the definitional challenges the field currently faces, the Sociology of Law has contributed positively to the critical analysis of specific issues and in opening up legal theory and practice.

Sociology of Law Today
