Undergraduate law student, AMA
you're right
we should copy brazils legal system, you guys really know how to stop crime
OOOOOOOBJECTION YOUR HONOR
MEMBERS OF THE JURY, DOES THIS MAN SEEM LIKE UN MONSTRUO, UNA LUZ OBSCURA, UN GOBLINO TO YOU? AN OGRE OF THE AMERICAS WHO SEEKS TO DILUTE THE PEDIGREE THIS GREAT NATION FOREVERMORE? HWELL, ESTEEMED JURORS, I BEG TO DIFFER! BEAR IN MIND, THIS IS A FAMILY MAN YOU'RE SENTENCING TO PRISON!
>Law is about stopping crime
Our system is mostly a copy of german, french and italian theorists, so go ahead
yes it is
criminal law is one of many fields of study, there is constitucional, tributary, civil and so on
Law is about punishing acordingly when crime occurs, not stopping it.
test
Hello there
>UNA LUZ OBSCURA
that makes no sense at all
Might as well just say Anglo countries since we're the only ones who use it. Even places like Quebec, Lousiana and fucking Scotland use Civil Law.
if you'd been brainswashed by fantasy literature more, then the idea of a dark light might make more sense to you
punishing crimes to deter people from doing it
>punishing crimes to deter people from doing it
that's secondary, we punish crimes primarily because people think there are acts worth of an artificial consequence, THEN we, the society, think that this consequence will deter the crime
Our system is called "Roman-Germanic law" if I recall correctly. I think the name in English is "Civil Law"
can also be called "continental law"
ah yes when i want lessons on how to manage criminal justice i turn to brazil
common law is in successful countries. coincidence? I think not
True but law as in if you brake the law can discourage future law braking
Sorry my brainlet mind i meant to say sanction
You get my point i hope
so is civil law.
>Usa
>Canada
>UK
>Sucessfull
Actually they are
Evem thou they law system is based on alot of case study
yeah all common law nations are successful but not every civil law nation is
>brazil
Italy and france are successful and they are the base for the civil law
Hey, for like 20 million people our country is great
>"""trial""" by jury
You mean "break"
brake = pic related
>but not every civil law nation is
reread this please
ummmm no sweetie ;)
I am actually surprised that Australia and New Zealand seemingly managed to have decent laws despite being based on such a flawed paradigm.
Or maybe they actually have their share of absurdities and loopholes but nobody cares enough to post them.
And you think that's due to common law? The answer for success is Economics.
coincidence? i think not my vine swinging friend
That's because you can't think, my fat friend.
The rule of law determinates the success of a state even in economic sence
Look for example at arab states with wealth of oil but the rule of law as in states like the west caused alot of inequality and poor state
But no rule of law as in european states*
what's the main and most important difference between common and civil law?
t.brainlet (in law stuff)
Meh im sleepy i cannot post as a rational human i need to go and sleep good night
I might be wrong but I think it works like this:
Civil law has encoded laws and common law is when the judges go by what was decided before in other cases. We see in American movies (who have common law) the lawyers always say "in case John doe vs the state such thing was decided blah blah blah"
hi
>And you think that's due to common law?
yes
>mfw I realize they don't think classical liberalism is the answer for everything.
