Observation shows that commonly law produces uniformities in the behavior of individuals within a social group. Legal uniformities of behavior belong to the number of "imposed uniformities," in contradistinction to "natural" and "imitative" uniformities. Imposed uniformities may be (1) ethical or nonethical, (2) imperative or nonimperative. Uniformities which are simultaneously ethical and imperative are derived from law. In this way the sociological place of law among the causes producing uniformities is determined
