legal culture  

Definición

  • The term legal culture is a relatively new one, although it traces to terms like legal tradition or legal style, which have a much longer history in comparative law or in early political science. It presupposes and invites us to explore the existence of systematic variation in patterns in “law in the books,” in “law in action,” and, above all, in the relation between them.
