Legal doctrine reemerges as powerful source of law, shaping legal systems.
Legal doctrine, a set of influential legal writings, used to be a key source of law alongside legislation. It provided a solid foundation for legal decisions when laws were unclear. However, over time, legislation became dominant, pushing legal doctrine to the sidelines. The researchers argue that legal doctrine should be given more importance in legal studies, as it can enhance the understanding of laws and strengthen the connection between legal scholars and lawmakers. By incorporating legal doctrine into decision-making processes, legal actions can be more grounded in theory and not solely based on personal opinions. This shift could lead to a more robust legal system with a stronger theoretical basis.
