Evolution and the Common Law
Allan C. Hutchinson
York University, Toronto
(ISBN-13: 9780511112089 | ISBN-10: 0511112084)
This book offers a radical challenge to accounts of the common laws development. Contrary to received jurisprudential wisdom, it maintains there is no grand theory which will explain satisfactorily the dynamic interactions of change and stability in the common laws history. Offering original readings of Charles Darwins and Hans-Georg Gadamers works, the book shows that law is a rhetorical activity that can only be properly appreciated in its historical and political context; tradition and transformation are locked in a mutually reinforcing but thoroughly contingent embrace. In contrast to the dewy-eyed offerings of much contemporary work, it demonstrates that, like life, law is an organic process (i.e., events are the products of functional and localized causes) rather than a miraculous one (i.e., events are the result of some grand plan or intervention). In short, common law is a perpetual work-in-progress - evanescent, dynamic, messy, productive, tantalising, and bottom-up.
Challenges almost all previous accounts of common law Offers an original approach to the development of the common law and basic issues in jurisprudence Connects legal theory to wider evolutionary debates in the humanities and social sciences
