Beschreibung
This
volume presents a Type Theory of Law (TTL), claiming that this is a unique
theory of law that stems from the philosophical understanding of Jung’s
psychological types applied to the phenomenon of law. Furthermore, the TTL
claims to be a universal, general and descriptive account of law. To prove
that, the book first presents the fundamentals of Jungian psychological types,
as they had been invented by Jung and consequently developed further by his
followers. The next part of the book describes how the typological structure of
an individual determines their understanding of law. It then addresses the way
in which inclusive legal theory can be understood based on this typology.
Finally, the book describes the TTL in general and descriptive terms and puts
it into context. All in all, the book shows how the integral or inclusive
approach to understanding the nature of law is not only in tune with our time,
but also relevant for presenting a more persuasive picture of law than the
older exclusivist or dualist approaches of strict natural law and rigid legal
positivism did.
Focuses on legal ontology, and asks where one should look to find the essence in law Applies Jungian psychological typology to the jurisprudence Demonstrates how psychoanalysis can be applied to understand individuals in different legal professions
