La primera lección de Derecho

Synopsis of La primera lección de Derecho

In 'The First Lesson of Law', Paolo Grossi invites us to rediscover the essence of Law as a social order. Through a historical journey, the author analyzes how Law has been misinterpreted in the last two hundred years, especially due to its submission to the State, which has led to the loss of autonomy of jurists. Grossi proposes a recovery of the intrinsic humanity and sociality of Law, vindicating the central role of the jurist in the era of globalization and highlighting the importance of human rights and duties. This book raises a reflection on the legitimacy of Law in the current crisis of its identification with the State, advocating for a policy that recognizes the expansion of the subjective dimension of the same and an ethic of responsibility.
