The application of sociological methods in real / Primjena sociološkog metoda u pravu

Abstract

The sociological method is one of the most important methods in the social sciences in general and even in law as a social science.
Sociological Method as “modern” method gave a significant contribution to the acquisition of scientific knowledge about the law as a social science, scientific explanations of law, law-making and its implementation, starting from the nineteenth century onwards. No sociological methods, how to stand out R. Lukic, “the right to be left hanging in the air, as a fully independent intellectual creation, beyond time and space.”
Sociological method, determine why the law as it is, how it affects people and society and what his form and content should be provided.
These methods, also determines the degree of reality of legal norms, and determine whether the legal standard can achieve what we want.
However, regardless of the peaks of the sociological method, we should be realistic in assessing his options. Some proponents of sociological methods in real exaggerate in assessing the scientific character of the method, arguing that the sociology of science, which only gives a true knowledge of society and the law and that is dogmatic and normative method for hierarchical information below sociological, which is absolutely untrue.
Allocate any method and argue that he alone is the only one in the acquisition of scientific knowledge in science in general, and the right is a big mistake because, as Karl Marx said, “Science is no broad and easy way ...” and put to scientific knowledge in every science and the law and seeks, among other things, and cumulative application of methods and tools that are at our disposal.
