The paper discusses the explicitly stated understanding of legal science as it appears in compulsory course textbooks on positive law subjects at the Faculty of Law, University of Zagreb. The first ...part of the paper describes the research problem and posits the corresponding hypotheses, states the research aims, describes the method of qualitative content analysis, and elaborates on the content units used (themes, categories and subcategories). The second part establishes the textbooks which contain an explicit determination of a branch of legal science that they belong to, or legal science in general, and the extent to which they contain it. Furthermore, it establishes how the subject matter, objectives and methods of legal science are defined in the textbooks and whether the textbooks include interdisciplinarity as a part of legal research. The third part determines the predominant understanding of the subject matter, objectives and methods of legal science and the predominant understanding of interdisciplinarity of legal research in the analyzed course textbooks. The conclusion contains a discussion of research results, determines the extent to which the hypotheses are confirmed and highlights the possible avenues of further empirical and theoretical research on (Croatian) legal science. The research results demonstrate that the analyzed textbooks mostly contain at least an elementary determination of legal science, but differ greatly with respect to the placement, extent, and way of its elaboration. Furthermore, according to the predominant understanding, the subject matter of legal science are general legal norms. Its objectives are to describe the law, systematize it and to recommend more appropriate legislative solutions and ways of interpreting and applying it, while its methods are the dogmatic method, the comparative method, and the sociological method. Objectives and methods are mostly just mentioned, without being described and explained. Finally, less than a half of the textbooks mention that legal research includes some level of interdisciplinarity, while the predominant understanding is that interdisciplinarity consists primarily in using insights from other scientific disciplines.
Pokrovčeva knjiga Slobodno stvaranje prava: Herman U. Kantorowicz i slobodnopravni pokret (2018) nameće pitanje izraženo naslovom ovog rada na koje rad odgovara u tri koraka: prvo, pretpostavkom da ...je pitanje odgovorivo samo idealnim tipovima pravnih disciplina / funkcija; drugo, upućivanjem na kontekst Kantorowiczevih gledišta, osobito na objavu presuda; treće, ocjenom da je Kantorowicz podijelio pravnu znanost u prepletene funkcije a ne u odvojene discipline. U tu svrhu rad nudi idealne tipove disciplina i funkcija pravne dogmatike, pravne historije, pravne teorije i, kao najsloženiji i najkorisniji skup funkcija, pravnopolitičku analizu. Pretpostavka je, koja se ne dokazuje, da ne postoji ni oštra granica između pravne znanosti i susjednih znanosti: sociologije, ekonomije, psihologije, filozofije.
Why did »equality« become prominent in European societies based on hierarchy during the Enlightenment? What does »equality« imply for societies, politics, or legal systems? The contributors to this ...volume draw on various historical case studies, from visionary practices in revolutionary France and the collection of data on the poor in 19th-century Germany, to claims raised under the minority regime of the League of Nations and the anti-discrimination politics of the UN and India. The dynamics of universalizing equality are contrasted with a concept asserting that equality must be limited to and by order. The contributions thus explore concepts of equality from the perspectives of history and law and show that practices of comparing were essential when it came to imagining others as equal, fighting discrimination, or scandalizing social inequalities.

Why Noncompliance traces the history of noncompliance within the European Union (EU), focusing on which states continuously do or do not follow EU Law, why, and how that affects the governance in the ...EU and beyond. n exploring the EU's long and varied history of noncompliance, Tanja A. Börzel takes a close look at the diverse groups of noncompliant states throughout the EU's existence. Why do states that are vocally critical of the EU have a better record of compliance than those that support the EU? Why has noncompliance been declining since the 1990s, even though the EU was adding member-states and numerous laws? Börzel debunks conventional wisdoms in EU compliance research, showing that noncompliance in the EU is not caused by the new Central and Eastern European member states, nor by the Eurosceptic member states. So why do these states take the brunt of Europe's misplaced ire? Why Noncompliance introduces politicization as an explanatory factor that has been long overlooked in the literature and scholarship surrounding the European Union. Börzel argues that political controversy combined with voting power and administrative capacity, explains why noncompliance with EU law has been declining since the completion of the Single Market, cannot be blamed on the EU's Central and Easter European member states, and is concentrated in areas where EU seeks to protect citizen rights.

Važnom promjenom evaluacijskih uvjeta
koju je donio Pravilnik o uvjetima za izbor u znanstvena zvanja iz 2017.,
znanstvenici u polju pravo počeli su publiciranje svojih radova promatrati na
drukčiji ...način - kroz bodovanje, novu kategorizaciju i indeksiranost u časopisa
za objavu u bazama poput Scopusa ili WoSCC-a. Istodobno, to je zahtijevalo i
prilagodbu znanstvenih časopisa istim proklamiranim uvjetima. Time su obilježja
hrvatskoga pravnoznanstvenog realiteta kad je riječ o publicistici postala
uvjetovana nastojanjima da se podvrgnu standardizaciji i metrici, no istodobno,
bez uvažavanja osobitosti koje su inherentne pravu kao disciplini, od čega je
temeljna ona o primarnoj nacionalnoj orijentiranosti. Rad donosi normativnu analizu prethodnih i pozitivnih uvjeta vezanih za vrednovanje publiciranih radova u polju pravo kao
i rezultate istraživanja dobivenih ispitivanjem pravnih znanstvenika na četiri
pravna fakulteta u Republici Hrvatskoj. Spoznaje dobivene istraživanjem donose
obilježja prethodnoga modaliteta publiciranja pravnih znanstvenika u Hrvatskoj
u svjetlu novih uvjeta te ukazuju kako će navedene promjene utjecati na buduće
publiciranje u polju pravu.
Il significativo cambiamento dei criteri valutativi introdotto dal Regolamento sui requisiti per l'attribuzione dei titoli scientifici del 2017 ha portato gli studiosi del diritto a considerare la pubblicazione dei propri scritti in maniera diversa – mediante punteggi, mediante una nuova categorizzazione ed indicizzazione nelle riviste inserite in banche dati come Scopus o WoSCC. Al contempo, ciò ha richiesto anche l'adattamento delle riviste scientifiche a tali nuovi requisiti. In tale
modo le caratteristiche della realtà scientifico giuridica croata, quando si tratta delle pubblicazioni, è condizionata dai tentativi di standardizzarle, ma al tempo stesso anche condizionate dall'assenza del riconoscimento delle particolarità che riguardano il diritto come disciplina tra le quali in primo luogo quella dell'orientamento nazionale. Il contributo offre un'analisi normativa dei requisiti precedenti e positivi collegati alla valutazione
dei lavori pubblicati nel settore del diritto, come pure i risultati delle ricerche ottenuti mediante l'intervista dei giuristi nelle quattro
facoltà di diritto nella Repubblica di Croazia. I dati raccolti mediante la ricerca condotta illustrano le caratteristiche delle previe modalità di pubblicazione degli studiosi del diritto in Croazia alla luce dei nuovi requisiti e mostrano come tali cambiamenti influiranno sulle future pubblicazioni nel settore del diritto.
Nachdem die Bewertungskriterien in den Regeln für die Bedingungen zur Verleihung wissenschaftlicher Titel aus dem Jahr 2017 wesentlich geändert wurden, begannen die Wissenschaftler im Gebiet des Rechts ihre Veröffentlichungen aus einer anderen Perspektive zu beobachten, nämlich
durch Punkte, neue Kategorisierung und Indexierung von Zeitschriften in
Scopus und WoSCC. Gleichzeitig mussten sich auch wissenschaftliche Zeitschriften an diese Bedingungen anpassen. Dadurch wurde die Rechtswissenschaft hinsichtlich der Veröffentlichungen von Standardisierung und Metrik abhängig geworden, ohne dass man die Eigenschaften des Rechts als Disziplin, insbesondere ihren nationalen Charakter, in Betracht gezogen hat. Dieser Beitrag analysiert die vorherigen Bedingungen für die Bewertung von veröffentlichten Beiträgen im Gebiet des Rechts sowie auch die Ergebnisse der durch die Befragung von Rechtswissenschaftlern an vier juristischen Fakultäten in der Republik Kroatien durchgeführten Forschung. Indem man in diesem Beitrag die Merkmale früherer Bewertungskriterien mit den Merkmalen der neuen Bewertungskriterien
vergleicht, weist man darauf hin, wie die dargestellten Änderungen die Zukunft der Veröffentlichungen im Gebiet des Rechts beeinflussen werden.
By significantly changing the evaluation
criteria set out in the Rules on Conditions for Election in Scientific Titles
in 2017, law field scientists began to observe the publication of their papers
in a way that has not yet been introduced - through scoring, new categorization
and indexing in Scopus and WoSCC bases. At the same time, this required the
adaptation of scientific journals to the same proclaimed conditions. This is why the characteristics of Croatian legal-scientific reality, in terms
of paper publication, have become conditioned by the efforts to undergo
standardization and metrics. At the same time this happens without respecting
the inherent fundamental characteristic of law as a discipline. One of the
basic ones is primarily national orientation. The paper provides a normative
analysis of the previous and positive conditions related to the evaluation of the published scientific papers in the
field of law, as well as the results of the research obtained by examining law
scientists at the four law faculties in the Republic of Croatia. Research
findings bring the features of the previous modality of publishing on behalf of
legal scientists in Croatia in the light of the new conditions and indicate
that the changes presented will affect future publication intention in the field of law.

Razmatraju se teorijski prethodnici i izvori sociologije prava u radovima Eugena Pusića. Pusića autor smatra glavnim
teoretičarom pravne teorije i sociologije prava u Hrvatskoj. Smatra da postoji ...izvjesna logika teorijskog razvoja od moderne teorije organizacije prema sociologiji i konačno sociologiji prava. Razvoj od studija javne uprave i organizacije prema studijama društva i teoriji prava desio se i kod drugih. Teorija organizacije, kao manje vrijednosno i ideološki kontaminirana od teorija države, bila je čvrst temelj za analizu fenomena prava. Ističe se utjecaj pravnih teoretičara i praktičara kroz grupu Pravo i društvo, te interferenciju
radova N. Luhmanna s Pusićevim stavovima. Čini se da je prijelomni trenutak bila Pusićeva suradnja s Niklasom Luhmannom nakon 1976. Interes Eugena Pusića za sociologijom prava nije posljedica slučaja, već logični razvoj i sazrijevanje vlastite teorije. On tvrdi da je sociologija prava domena novog shvaćanja prava.
Rad s praktične strane razmatra stvaranje predmetnih odrednica i analizu pravnih sadržaja publikacija znanstvenog područja prava, u Knjižnici Pravnog fakulteta u Zagrebu. Promišlja i najbolje prakse ...za što dosljedniji stručni sustav predmetnog označivanja, a da je prilagođen potrebama korisnika. Posebno, koja bi bila osnovna mjerila za razvoj ovog sustava, uz utjecaj povijesnih promjena zakonodavstva, pravne prakse, nazivlja i jezika građe iz područja prava. Također, razmatra i kako se sadržajni analitičar može prilagoditi promjenama u području prava i informacijske znanosti, te kojim mjerilima uskladiti jezik i strukturu postojećih predmetnih odrednica sa stalnim promjenama i korisničkim potrebama. Pokušala se prikazati i hijerarhijska organizacijska shema ključnih riječi i predmeta za potrebe bibliografskog zapisa. Rad propituje i najbolju primjenu posebnih pomagala poput normiranih predmetnica, pravnih tezaurusa ili univerzalne decimalne klasifikacije u elektroničkom okruženju, s krajnjim ciljem hijerarhijske predmetne sheme, koja bi ujedno bila i praktična za uporabu. Zaključno, ističe potrebu pomirenja stručne zadanosti područja prava i sadržajne analize, s potrebom da korisnik pristupi što značajnijoj količini sadržaja o određenim pravnim predmetima.
