Dean of Soochow Law School: The two most common mistakes that people who study law are guilty of

author:Mai reads the law reading

◉ The newness of jurisprudence should not depend on the chronological order, but on the suitability of the content to the needs of the present.

◉ Law is a kind of norm of life, and its content should change with the environment of the times to meet new needs.

◉ There are two common mistakes that mainland law students are most likely to make: (1) Lack of understanding of illegal subjects related to law. (2) There is only a partial study of the subject of law.

◉ The law is a tool to achieve a certain purpose, and the study or application of the law must pay attention to the purpose of the law and review its actual function. The most taboo offender is to chew on words and ignore the purpose and effect of the law.

◉ Most of the popular legal works in the market are guilty of the following faults: (1) Authors often like to list a bibliography at the first few pages or end of the book, including works in English, German, French, Italian, Japanese and other languages. (2) In writings, they often like to quote the doctrines of various schools or the systems of various countries without explaining the basis (e.g., see what books and laws, etc.). (3) The author often interprets the legal provisions in a realistic way, deliberately avoids the important and trivial, analyzes the superficial problems in detail, and omits difficult problems.

◉ However, most jurists in the mainland lack cultivation in this regard, and it is easy to trust and imitate others, and they often cannot distinguish whether a certain system is in line with the national conditions. I often feel overwhelmed when I encounter a new problem.

◉ The root causes of the above five kinds of problems can be summarized into the following three categories: First, the shortcomings of legal scholars, including those of lawyers: (1) complacency, (2) conservatism, (3) isolation or alienation from ordinary social life, (4) neglect of the study of legal theory, and (5) failure to emphasize the function of the legal system. Second, the backwardness of education, i.e., legal education, includes: (1) the education authorities despise legal education, (2) the legal education curriculum is outdated, (3) the law books and equipment are poor, (4) the law teaching methods are not improved, and (5) the legal research work (such as the establishment of the law research institute is enriched) has not been effectively promoted. Third, the shortcomings of society include: (1) ordinary people do not respect the law, and (2) ordinary people do not respect experts, especially legal experts.

◉ It is necessary to first eliminate the poverty of the legal field, that is, to eliminate: (1) the obsolescence of the content of law, (2) the narrowness of the scope of research, (3) the machinery of legal technology, (4) the superficiality of legal opinions, and (5) the weakness of adaptability and creativity. However, in order to achieve this, it is necessary to make efforts in three aspects, namely: (1) efforts to cultivate the law scholars themselves, (2) efforts to improve and enrich legal education, and (3) efforts to shift the general social atmosphere.
