  • Two Generations of Scandinavian Legal Realists
    62 RETFÆRD ÅRGANG 32 2009 NR. 1/124 Two Generations of Scandinavian Legal Realists CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Helsingin yliopiston digitaalinen arkisto JOHAN STRANG Johan Strang Abstract: The discussion on the implications of Scandinavian Legal Realism would benefit con- siderably from more careful historical attention to the different political and philosophical ambi- tions of the theoreticians that followed Axel Hägerström. The scholars, who were later gathered under the label Scandinavian Legal Realism, did not represent a static theoretical position that remained unchanged from the 1910s to the 1950s; rather, their aims and ambitions varied with changing political and philosophical circumstances. The purpose of this article is to propose a distinction between two generations of Scandinavian Legal Realists. While the goal of the first generation (Vilhelm Lundstedt and Karl Olivecrona) fell little short of revolutionising the field of jurisprudence, transforming law into a vehicle for political and social reform, one of the main objectives of the second generation (Alf Ross and Ingemar Hedenius) was to take the edge off the radicalism of their predecessors. Key Words: Scandinavian Legal Realism; politics, democracy; Uppsala philosophy; logical em- piricism; Alf Ross; Ingemar Hedenius If Scandinavian Legal Realism could be reduced to one basic tenet, the idea that the law is a social phenomenon ultimately relying only on the sanction of man himself would be one prominent candidate. This was a basic line of thought for the founder of the school, Axel Hägerström (1868-1939), as well as for his followers Vilhelm Lundstedt (1882-1955), Karl Olivecrona (1897-1980), Alf Ross (1899-1979) and Ingemar Hedenius (1908-1982).

    Japan and the United Nations Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Japan Japan's Contribution to the International Community at the UN Foundation of the UN and Japan's Accession to the UN The United Nations (UN) was founded in 1945 under the pledge to prevent the recurrence of war. Eleven years later, in 1956, Japan joined the UN as its 80th member. Since its accession, Japan has contributed to a diversity of fields in UN settings. For example, as of 2014, Japan had served ten times as a non-permanent member of the UN Security Council (UNSC). Also, as the only country that has ever suffered from the devastation of atomic bombings, Japan has taken every opportunity to call the importance of disarmament and non-proliferation to the attention of the international community, gaining appreciation and trust from many countries. Today, the international community faces a number of new challenges to be addressed, such as a rash of regional and ethnic conflicts, poverty, sustainable development, climate change, and human rights issues. These global challenges should be addressed by the United Nations with its universal character. For nearly three decades, Japan has been the second largest contributor to the UN's finances after the United States, and Japan is an indispensable partner in the management of the UN. ⓒUN Photo/Mark Garten 1 Japan's Contributions at the UN In cooperation with the UN, Japan contributes to international peace and stability through exercising leadership in its areas of expertise, such as agenda-setting and rule-making for the international community. A case in point is human security.

Alf Ross 1899–1979: A Biographical Sketch Knud Waaben* Alf Ross was born on 10 June 1899 in Copenhagen, the son of a civil servant in a government department. He graduated from high school in 1917. His first choice was to study at the Technical University, but he left it after one term and turned to law. He finished his legal studies in the summer of 1922 with remarkable results, obtaining the rare distinction then called laudabilis et qvidem egregie. Following graduation, he took up employment in a barrister’s office, but the practical occupations of a trainee did not satisfy him and he preferred to devote his time to further studies in law. Ross was well deserving of the scholarship he received from the Law Faculty for studies abroad. These awards would normally enable a young lawyer to spend about two years in foreign universities, usually in Germany, France and England. In 1923, Ross set out on a study tour which lasted two and a half years. In this same year he married Else-Merete Helweg-Larsen, a student at the Faculty of Humanities, who later became a high school teacher. She was a member of Parliament in 1960–73, representing a small liberal party which held considerable influence over the formation of political majorities after general elections. Ross’ journey took him to France, England and Austria. He may have gone abroad, as many young people did, without a detailed plan of study, but rather with an open mind to learn all he could from foreign law, court visits and perhaps from discussions with professors.

Ross and Olivecrona on Rights BRIAN H. BIX1 Introduction The Scandinavian legal realists, critically-inclined theorists from Denmark, Norway, and Sweden, who wrote in the early and middle decades of the 20t century,2 are not as widely read as they once were in Britain, and they seemed never to have received much attention in the United States. This is unfortunate, as the work of those theorists, at their best, is as sharp in its criticisms and as sophisticated philosophically as anything written by the better known (at least better known in Britain and the United States) American legal realists, who were writing at roughly the same time. The focus of the present article, Alf Ross and Karl Olivecrona, were arguably the most accessible of the Scandinavian legal realists, with their clear prose, straight- forward style of argumentation, and the availability of a number of works in English.

The central inquiry seeks to answer the contemporaneous question of whether Article 142 can be invoked to make an order or pass a decree which is inconsistent or in express conflict with the substantive provisions of a statute. To aid this inquiry, cases where the apex court has granted a decree of divorce by mutual consent in exercise of Article 142(1) have been examined extensively. Thus the note also examines the efficacy and indispensible nature of this power in nebulous cases where the provisions of a statute are insufficient for solving contemporary problems or doing complete justice. INTRODUCTION An exemplary provision, Article 142(1) of the Constitution of India envisages that the Supreme Court in the exercise of its jurisdiction may pass such enforceable decree or order as is necessary for doing ‘complete justice’ in any cause or matter pending before it. While the jurisprudence surrounding other provisions of the Constitution has developed manifold, rendering them more concrete and stable interpretations, Article 142(1) is far from tracing this trend. The nature and scope of power contemplated in Article 142(1) has continued to be mooted imaginatively.

  • On Law, Power and Society: a View of a Moral Dialectic1
    On Law, Power and Society: A View of a Moral Dialectic1 Thora Margareta Bertilsson ‘...a primary social order undergoes, on the one hand, an externalization and institutionalization process whereby the law merges as an explicit ordering system, while at the same time a parallel process of internalization and spiritualization occurs, the result of which is called morality. Consequently then, law and morality must be regarded as conceptual opposites which in the course of linear development draw further and further apart. Morality is founded on internal obligation, law on external. Morality is what I feel obligated to do; law is what the state obligates me to do.’ (Geiger 1969: 117 - 118) This occasion seems to invite a reconsideration of what Theodor Geiger (1891 - 1952) wrote as a response to the very vivid ‘realist movement’ in law and philosophy which he experienced in Scandinavia at the time of his arrival and the preceding years of his stay.2 The bifurcation of traditional moral life into, on the one hand, a militant scientism in the legal and subsequent social sciences (to be formed), and, on the other hand, a forceful featuring of the inner and often chaotic emotional life of modern men and women as depicted in drama and in art actually seem to characterize the Scandinavian mentalities evolving in the late 19th and 20th century (Geiger 1946). In such a way, the featuring of Scandinavian moral life fits the scheme which Alasdair Macintyre proposes in his bestseller After Virtue, A Study in Moral Theory (1981). The making of the modern welfare state in Scandinavia demanded the externalization of the legal language from its traditional anchorage in moral values and the subsequent internalization/subjectivation of the value-language found in great Scandinavian literature.

The problem, I have argued
