From Rules of Life to Rules of Law. An Account of M. Krygier Approach to Sociological Jurisprudence

Abstract

This essay offers a personal reading of prof. Martin Krygier’s scholarship. Linking the history of Krygier’s family with his view on sociological jurisprudence, especially on the living law concept, I draw the connections between the personal narration of rules of life and rules of law. His scholarship can be interpreted as a development of the living law concept integrating personal narrations of living humans in living law institutions.
