Realist jurisprudence

Japanese: リアリズム法学 - りありずむほうがく(英語表記)realist jurisprudence
Realist jurisprudence

This refers to the trend in jurisprudence that seeks to view law as a fact rather than as a norm.

(1) A school of American jurisprudence that emerged in the 1930s under the influence of Holmes, Pound, and others, also known as neo-realism. Its starting point, Jerome Frank's Law and the Modern Spirit (1930), claimed that legal stability was a myth and criticized the objectivity of legal interpretation and, in particular, the objectivity of judges' fact-finding. People who belong to this school include Thurman Arnold, Fred Rodel, and Karl Nickerson Llewellyn (1893-1962).

(2) This refers to Scandinavian legal realism, a school of thought centered around Axel Hägerström (1868-1939) of the University of Uppsala in Sweden, which sought to establish an empirical scientific theory of law. Representatives of this school include Karl Olivecrona (1897-1980) and Alf Ross (1899-1978).
