This book focuses on the special character of law in performing certain social functions including resolving disputes, maintaining historical continuity and doctrinal consistency, protecting and facilitating voluntary arrangements, and resolving acute social conflict. The text presents aspects of criminal and civil procedure; judicial reasoning on the basis of precedents (focusing on manufacturers in tort); the law of contracts; and labor, race, and gender laws to test the success of the system in carrying out these basic purposes. Includes American and comparative and international law materials.
