...LawFrom Old English lagu "Words of Mel"; legal comes from Latin legalis, from lex "law", "statute" ( Law, Online Etymology Dictionary; Legal, Merriam-Webster's Online Dictionary) is a system of rules, usually enforced through a set of institutions.Robertson, Crimes against humanity, 90; see "analytical jurisprudence" for extensive debate on what law is; in The Concept of Law Hart argued law is a "system of rules" (Campbell, The Contribution of Legal Studies, 184); Austin said law was "the command of a sovereign, backed by the threat of a sanction" (Bix, John Austin); Dworkin describes law as an "interpretive concept" to achieve justice (Dworkin, Law's Empire, 410); and Raz argues law is an "authority" to mediate people's interests (Raz, The Authority of Law, 3–36). It shapes politics, economics and society in numerous ways and serves as a primary social mediator of relations between people. Contract law regulates everything from buying a bus ticket to trading on derivatives markets. Property law defines rights and obligations related to the transfer and title of personal (often referred to as chattel) and real property. Trust law applies to assets held for investment and financial security, while tort law allows claims for compensation if a person's rights or property are harmed. If the harm is criminalised in a statute, criminal law offers means by which the state can prosecute the perpetrator. Constitutional law provides a framework for the creation of law, the protection of human rights and the election of political representatives. Administrative law is used to review the decisions of government agencies, while international law governs affairs between sovereign nation states in activities ranging from trade to environmental regulation or military action. Writing in 350 BC, the Greek philosopher Aristotle declared, "The rule of law is better than the rule of any individual."n.b. this translation reads, "it is more proper that law should govern than any one of the citizens: upon the same principle, if it is advantageous to place the supreme power in some particular persons, they should be appointed to be only guardians, and the servants of the laws." (Aristotle, Politics 3.16). Read full entry

I completely believe so. Law schools will not focus just on the law of a particular country, but it will teach values and concepts applicable to many countries. |

What law career should i I am interested in law school
once I finish college, but I
want to practice some kind of
law where I would get to use
languages. I am working on my
French fluency and am also
studying Chinese. What is the
best field? I am not
particularly interested in
Public International Law, but
am interested in International
Business Law. I am not
interested in living abroad or
travelling every week of the
year, but more of something
where I would travel once in a
while to other countries to
negotiate deals,etc. Do most
firms have lawyers who
specialize in dealings abroad,
and would they actually use
languages?

What is the best profession in As we all know there is no
"typical lawyer." There are
many "professions" within the
profession of law. I have a

be when i specialize in
criminal law, family law,
personal injury or defective
product litigation, trust and
estate law, business
transactions and litigation,
tax law, employment or labor
law, environmental law, patent
and trademark law, civil
rights litigation, or in other
specialized areas?
