TYPES OF LAW

Substantive and Procedural Law

Substantive law defines the rights and duties of persons; procedural law defines procedures for enforcing those rights and duties. Substantive law determines a wide variety of matters — for example, what is required to form a contract, what the difference is between larceny and robbery, when a person can have compensation for an injury, and so on. The rules of procedure and jurisdiction determine the court that may deal with a claim or dispute; the form of the trial, hearing, or appeal; the time limits involved; and so on.

Public Law

Public law concerns the relationships within government and between governments and individuals. The development of administrative law is a comparatively recent event. Numerous administrative agencies now make rules that deal with all kinds of activities, including licensing, protection of health, etc. Criminal law not only promotes security and order but also reinforces moral norms. There have been continuous debates regarding the legitimacy of government intervention in areas where moral attitudes are in significant conflict (such as in matters of birth control and euthanasia).

Private Law

Private law involves the various relationships that people have with one another and the rules that determine their legal rights and duties among themselves. The area is concerned with rules and principles concerning private ownership and use of property, contracts between individuals, family relationships. Historically, government involvement was usually minimal. The relative significance of purely private law has decreased in modern times. Public law dominates in government controlled societies; democratic societies have a mix of public and private law. The private sphere includes individuals and a great number of groups, associations, organizations, and special legal entities such as corporations. They compete with one another and with government for control of resources, wealth, and power. Special fields of law, such as labour law, facilitate and control this competition. Much of such law is in the commercial and corporate areas.
