INTRODUCTION:
The Jurisprudence Historical School argued that the law is an exaggerated form of social
culture, economic necessity, common religious principles, and social relations. The historical
school does not believe in or support the idea of a natural law school that believes that the
origin of the law comes from a higher authority and has some divine relation. Two jurists
researched extensively in this area – Friedrich Carl Von Savigny (1799-1861) and Sir
Henry Maine (1822-1888) will be the subject of examination in this section. The history
school follows the concept of man-made rules. ‘Law set for people and people’ means that the
law must be in line with the changing needs of the people. The primary source of the
Historical School of Jurisprudence practices the culture of the people which changes
according to their needs and requirements. It is also called the mainland school of
Jurisprudence. This school rejects the notion of law enforcement by judges and the origin of
some divine relationship. In the words of Salmond, “That branch of legal philosophy called
legalism is a common part of legal history. It contains the same relationship with general legal
history as the law of analysis has a systematic disclosure of the legal system. It addresses,
first, the general principles governing the origin and development of the law, as well as the
influences affecting the law. It deals with the second place in the origin and development of
those ideologies and legal principles that are so important to their nature as to qualify for a
place in the legal philosophy - the same concepts and principles, namely to be dealt with
differently and in another way through analytical law. Legal law is the history of the original
principles and ideas of the legal system. ”
Savigny was the father of a history school. He argued that the law was like a
language and had a national identity. The law is not universal. While
Puchta developed Savigny’s views and argued that both the country and the
people are equally important and a source of law.
