Mores and the Law: Taking Sumner Seriously
I examine here how Sumner's concept of the mores applies to modern urban society—in particular to law as an epiphenomenon of the mores rather than an influence on them. Strongly-held mores are rare in contem porary societies. Rather, sub mores pervade, causing conflict among antag onistic interests. Law can sometimes bridge these submores, as in labor- management conflict. Law can also provide a framework within which pervasive mores may evolve. …
The Supreme Court and Capital Punishment: A Quest for Balance between Legal and Societal Morality
The interrelationships of legal and societal morality are examined through an analysis of judicial opinions in the Supreme Court's review of the constitutionality of the death penalty. Neither community standards nor considerations of utility provided the justices with a satisfactory basis for rejecting or regulating the death penalty. Resting their decisions instead on grounds of fairness, the justices endorsed a mode of jury guidance and monito…
Law in the Kibbutz: A Response to Professor Shapiro
Professor Allan Shapiro's article, “Law in the Kibbutz: A Reappraisal” raises several questions about my 1954 article, “Social Factors in the Development of Legal Control: A Case Study of Two Israeli Settlements.” I shall formulate the major questions, as I understand them, and suggest the answers as well as I can

Legal Evolution and the Durkheim Hypothesis: A Reply to Professor Baxi
At the outset, I wish to thank Professor Upendra Baxi for his critical reading of the Schwartz-Miller article. Several years ago, when we first talked, he expressed a lively interest in the issue to which his present comment is directed (Baxi, 1974). His observations, then and now, have helped me to understand some theoretical and methodological complexities in Durkheim's position which I had earlier missed. I acknowledge with gratitude his schol…

The Invocation of Legal Norms: An Empirical Investigation of Durkheim and Weber
This paper examines the ways in which legal norms enunciated by India's industrial tribunals are used by management and labor in their bilateral negotiations. Data from Indian courts and companies permit an empirical contrast between Durkheim's and Weber's analyses of the legal process. The evidence substantiates portions of both approaches: legal norms tend to be invoked as a function both of need for normative regulation and of the authority of…

On Legal Sanctions
Sanctions are officially imposed punishments aimed at enforcement of legal obligations. They are said to constitute the core, if not the defining characteristic, of the legal order. Inadequate sanctions are blamed for the failures of legal control in such divergent areas as international law, domestic crime, and civil rights. Despite the presumed importance of sanctions in the legal process, however, serious attention has rarely been paid to the …

Comparative Law and Social Theory
Legal Evolution and Societal Complexity
Comparative cross-cultural data suggest that legal characteristics occur in a standard sequential order. Mediation, police, and counsel are scaled in a sample of fifty-one societies; and their occurrence bears a systematic relationship to other attributes of the folk-urban continuum. Theoretical implications include possible relationships between damages and mediation, a partial disconfirmation of Durkheim's Division of Labor hypothesis, and a su…

Functional Alternatives to Inequality
F UNCTIONAL analysis is supposed to explain a given cultural item in terms of certain of its consequences, particularly those affecting societal survival or individual satisfaction. Such analysis should take into account the item's alternatives, namely, other items of culture which, if employed, would have the same consequences.1 This paper attempts to show that inequality as analyzed by Davis and Moore 2 has alternatives and that this fact requi…
