, The nature of law
law: a body of rules (commands aimed at regulating behaviour), created by the state, binding
within its jurisdiction (law of any country is binding only within its territory) and enforced
with the authority of the state through the use of sanctions.
characteristics of English law: little influenced by the Roman law, English judges are bound to
apply precedent, procure in English courts is largely adversarial (it’s about proving facts
rather than discovering truth, function of judges in Europe is more inquisitorial)
Why do we need law?

2. administrative and revenue law: provide public services and raise taxes to pay for them
3. administrative, civil and criminal law: regulate and promote economy
4. criminal law: promote public order, preserve national security
5. civil law: to individuals personal rights and duties
law of contract: arise civil law duties through agreement between parties
law of tort: duties being imposed directly
6. law of contract, law of property and succession, company and partnership law, family
law: give legal validity to approved relationships and transactions
