Abstract

Social scientists deal with concepts. Despite the fact that jurisprudence is not a science, attorneys and jurists use concepts in their thinking and decision-making. What we call social science is the process of connecting concepts with social reality or events that we encounter.

The article is based on the main theme defended in the author’s article published in Turkish in Birikim.

Notes

  1. 1.

    The debate over whether Jurisprudence is “science” is quite extensive and detailed. This issue will not be covered because it is outside the scope of this research. However, we might state that the notion of science needs be grasped as employing scientific procedures to arrive at cause-and-effect regularities known as laws. Indeed, Jurisprudence is a normative discipline in this sense. It purports to establish guidelines for how people in society should act.
