Zusammenfassung

Die Historiografie des schottischen Rechts geht über Jahrhunderte zurück. Zahlreiche Juristen haben dazu beigetragen, die nicht nur das Verständnis der schottischen Rechtsgeschichte vorangebracht, sondern gleichzeitig elementare Beiträge zur allgemeinen Historiografie des Landes und seiner weit zurückgehenden Tradition geleistet haben. Die schottische Rechtsphilosophie des 18. Jahrhunderts basierte auf Erfahrung und ihre Vertreter, insbesondere Persönlichkeiten wie Adam Smith und der Richter Lord Kames, betonten die Wichtigkeit der Entwicklung eines historischen Rechtsverständnisses. In den Jahrhunderten, die seitdem vergangen sind, haben sich viele Juristen und juristisch ausgebildete Historiker dem Studium der Geschichte und der historischen Quellen Schottlands zugewandt.
