Talk:Jurisprudence
From Academic Kids
1] No, jurisprudence is not definable as simply "the law." --LMS
- It certainly can be and often is without offering more. It is not enough to state what it is not, one must state then what it is! - RB
Somebody might want to look at the punctuation in this page (do a search for '?' in your browser to see what I mean). I'm not sure if someone edited the page in Word, but there seems to be errant question marks (possible apostrophes?); in addition, some sentences seem to lack ending punctuation. -- Notheruser 22:20 May 12, 2003 (UTC)
2] I agree with the opinion gave in wikipedia for 'jurisprudence', but it could be interesting to note or to add, that in continental and latinamerican contexts, 'jurisprudence' also means some stream of opinion prevaling in tribunals. For example, we says that "according to the prevaling jurisprudence contractants ought to...", o "according with the dominant jurisprudence [or the jurisprudence followed by this court] the article 14 of our constitution means...".
