9 EDITORIAL PREFACE During the last half of the twentieth century, legal philosophy (or legal theory or jurisprudence) has grown significantly. It is no longer the domain of a few isolated scholars in law and philosophy. Hundreds of scholars from diverse fields attend international meetings on the subject. In some universities, large lecture courses of five hundred students or more study it. The primary aim of the Law and Philosophy Library is to present some of the best original work on legal philosophy from both the Anglo-American and European traditions. Not only does it help make some of the best work available to an international audience, but it also encourages increased awareness of, and interaction between, the two major traditions. The primary focus is on full-length scholarly monographs, although some edited volumes of original papers are also included. The Library editors are assisted by an Editorial Advisory Board of internationally renowned scholars. Legal philosophy should not be considered a narrowly circumscribed field. Insights into law and legal institutions can come from diverse disciplines on a wide range of topics. Among the relevant disciplines or perspectives contributing to legal philosophy, besides law and philosophy, are anthropology, economics, political science, and sociology. Among the topics included in legal philosophy are theories of law; the concepts of law and legal institutions; legal reasoning and adjudication; epistemological issues of evidence and procedure; law and justice, economics, politics, or morality; legal ethics; and theories of legal fields such as criminal law, contracts, and property.

10 FOREWORD There are two reasons for our decision to publish the present set of essays as a joint book. The first is the extensive convergence in the jurisprudential ideas we have developed. The second is our wish to expose to critical discussion by others in the field a common theoretical approach which we hope will win recognition as a distinctive theory of law and one ripe for further development. In the history of science it has happened quite often that the same idea has been worked out around the same time by different researchers working quite independently of one another. The most celebrated example of this is no doubt the independent discoveries by Leibniz and by Newton of the infinitesimal calculus. The sociology of knowledge suggests that there is a variety of conditions which can make such convergence more or less probable. Developments in general culture and in the stock of common ideas shape at particular times the possibility of arriving at particular new ideas. The contemporary state of an art - its 'problem situation' - generates certain problems and sets the stage for formulating particular hypotheses or framing particular theories. Finally, similarities in the formative experience of scholars and in their cultural background often create conditions for the authorship of similar theses by different hands. In our case, in the development of what we call 'Institutional Legal Positivism', our conclusions were reached in entire mutual independence - neither were we personally acquainted, nor had either of us seen the other's work. The legal circles in which we received our academic training did not overlap at all, and we had different teachers both in jurisprudence and in philosophy. Yet the spirit in which we were both trained was that of an analytical or structure-theoretical approach to jurisprudence, and in matters of legal theory we both had a duality of interests ranging over sociological and political as well as logical and methodological issues. It was the same jurisprudential 'problem situation' that we both confronted, and the same questions to which we both sought answers, finding no fully satisfying answers to them in any of the then current juristic doctrines. Neither in pure normative theory nor in Neil MacCormick and Dta Weinberger, An Institutional Theory of Law, xi-xii by D. Reidel Publishing Company. Xl

11 xii FOREWORD legal realism nor in any of the various sociological theories of law was there a fully satisfactory explanation of the nature and existence of law. Obviously, then, our inquiries had a common foundation. Yet our lines of approach and the views we took of our intellectual enterprise were not the same. MacCormick's inquiries were into basic questions of analytical jurisprudence, the logical structure of legal reasoning and the legal relevance of ordinary language philosophy, while Weinberger's particular concerns were with the philosophical and semantic foundations of the logic of norms, alongside of a concern with structuretheoretical problems of law and of processes of legal change. It was all the more a matter of surprise and pleasure that we could discern such considerable similarity in our conclusions. The special pleasure of this was because we saw a genuine corroboration of our views in the fact that we had arrived at like results by different routes. The question of priority seems to us of no importance. Anyway, we both think that neither of us can claim it or rather that the question is not strictly answerable. If MacCormick was the first to put forward a proposal explicitly for an 'institutional' version of legal positivism in his Inaugural Lecture 'Law as Institutional Fact' (1973), yet Weinberger had already expressed essentially the same idea in his essay 'The Norm as Thought and as Reality' (1969) and arrived later, still unaware of MacCormick's work, at exactly the same terminology - in the essay 'Facts and Fact-Descriptions' (1979). The papers printed here are intended to map our route into institutionalist legal positivism, to set out its principal tenets, and to indicate the broader programme implicit in it. After the (previously unpublished) general introduction follows a chronological sequence of essays in order of first publication. In their re-publication, they have been amended and improved in various minor matters of style and of substance. Ruth Adler, together with Neil MacCormick, undertook the translation of Weinberger's essays from the German. The Austrian Fund for Promotion of Scientific Research met the costs of translation, and we are most grateful to it and to Dr Adler. We also thank Mrs Valerie Chuter and Mrs Sheila Macmillan for their secretarial assistance in preparing the manuscript for publication. Finally, to the original publishers of the essays here re-published, we owe and give warm thanks for their permission for re-publication. Edinburgh and Graz, 1985 D. NEIL MacCORMICK OTA WEINBERGER
