Austin believed that the science of general jurisprudence consisted in the clarification and arrangement of fundamental legal notions.According to Austin, a law is 'a rule laid down for the guidance of an intelligent being by an intelligent being having power over him.' This was what Austin defined as positive law. Austin believed that positive law was the appropriate focus of study for jurisprudence. He states that:"Every positive law, or every law simply and strictly so called, is set, directly or circuitously, by a sovereign person or body, to a member or members of the independent political society wherein that person or body is supreme."Издательство Нобель ПрессМягкий переплетОбъем - 508 стр.Формат - 148x210 мм.ISBN 978-5-8746-6284-4Год издания: 2011
