It begins by looking at how rules develop within a society and how laws are made, interpreted, and applied. You will be introduced to the nature and function of rules and law, to the distinctiveness of legal reasoning, and to the way in which law both responds to social phenomena and contributes to the development of different social, business and economic institutions. It then moves on to look at the concepts of legal personality, unlawful conduct and states of mind. The course explores civil and criminal sanctions; issues raised by human rights legislation; and the concepts of rights and justice. It will be of particular interest as preparation for a law degree, but will also provide an excellent introduction to the study of other subjects which require general familiarity with the judicial system. The course deals principally with the law of England and Wales. This material is taken from The Open University Course W100 Rules, rights and justice: an introduction to law.
