The Fight for Rights - The Fight for Rights (English: Der Kampf ums Recht)

Japanese: 権利のための闘争 - けんりのためのとうそう(英語表記)Der Kampf ums Recht
The Fight for Rights - The Fight for Rights (English: Der Kampf ums Recht)

A book written by German legal scholar Jhering. Revised and published (1891) for the general reader, it explains in a literary and powerful style what law means to human beings, based on the author's unique historical perspective. It begins with the famous words, "The goal of law is peace, and the means to achieve it is struggle," and goes on to say that protesting and fighting when one's rights are violated or oppressed by others is not simply a way to restore damages, but a way to restore one's personality. Furthermore, it goes on to say that the struggle for such rights contributes to the enactment of laws for the nation and society, and is therefore a duty of each individual to society. It is still widely read around the world as an excellent introduction to jurisprudence.

ドイツの法学者イェーリングの著書。講演を一般読者向けに補訂し出版(1891)したもので、人間にとって法とは何かを、著者独自の史観により、文学的で雄勁(ゆうけい)な筆致で説いている。「法の目標は平和であり、それに達する手段は闘争である」という有名なことばをもって始まり、他人から権利侵害や権利圧迫を受けたとき抗議闘争をするのは、単なる損害の回復ではなく、人格の回復である。さらに、このような権利のための闘争は、国家社会の法の制定に役だつのだから、各人の社会に対する義務である、とする。優れた法学入門書として、いまなお広く世界的に読まれている。
