A jurisprudence that has pragmatist philosophy as its common foundation for legal thought. In terms of the history of legal thought, it belongs to the lineage of British utilitarian jurisprudence. It began with O. Holmes, passed through B. Cardozo, and was systematized by R. Pound. It understands law as a means of social control, and holds that law has a regulating function of satisfying as many human desires as possible with the least possible sacrifices. Pound viewed jurisprudence, which should promote human happiness and contribute to the progress and improvement of society, as "social engineering," and conceived of a sociological jurisprudence that applies sociological awareness.

プラグマティズム哲学を法思想の共通の基礎としている法学。法思想史的にはイギリスの功利主義法学の系列に属する。 O.ホームズに始り,B.カードーゾを経て,R.パウンドによって体系化された。法を社会統制の手段として把握し,法にはできるだけ最少の犠牲でできるかぎり多くの人間の欲求を満足させるという調整機能があるとする。パウンドは人間の幸福を増進させ社会の進歩改善に役立つべき法学を「社会工学」としてとらえ,社会学的認識を応用した社会学的法律学を構想した。
