- More about Sociology of Law as the Science of Norms
The book "The Science of Norms" proposes studying norms as a method to explain human choice and behavior, drawing from social science and legal studies. It suggests that norms today are primarily shaped by systems created by mankind to fulfill needs, rather than social expectations. By expanding the sociological understanding of norms, the book compares different parts of society and provides a holistic understanding of contemporary society. It is of interest to academics and researchers in sociology of law, legal theory, philosophy of law, sociology, and social psychology.

This groundbreaking book presents a novel approach to understanding human choice and behavior by delving into the realm of norms. It can be broadly interpreted as a social science that draws from both the behavioral and legal sciences, offering a comprehensive understanding of norms in society. It is important to note that the science of norms does not prescribe what is right or wrong in different situations but rather aims to shed light on how norms shape human behavior. In contrast, sociology of law focuses on the operational aspects of legal rules and regulations.
The book aims to develop a synthesizing social science approach to better comprehend societal development in the era of rapidly advancing digital technology. The central idea revolves around the notion that norms, as expectations in today's society, are not solely derived from social interactions between individuals but rather stem from the systems created by mankind to fulfill its needs. The economy, through the market, and technology, through digitization, generate stronger and more frequent expectations than the social system.
By expanding the sociological understanding of norms, the book enables comparisons between different segments of society, fostering a more holistic understanding of contemporary society. This book will appeal to academics and researchers in the fields of sociology of law, legal theory, philosophy of law, sociology, and social psychology, as it offers valuable insights into the complex dynamics of human behavior and societal norms.
