Bases of Legal System

(1/1)

Shah Alam Kabir Pramanik:
Four heritages from the bases for the majority of the legal systems of the world.

1. Common low: Common low derived from English law found in England, the United States, Canada and other countries once under English influence.

2. Civil or code law: Civil or code law , derived from Roman law and found in Germany, Japan, France and in non Islamic and non Marxist countries.

3. Islamic law: Islamic law derived from the interpretation of the Koran and found in Pakistan, Iran, Saudi Arabia and other Islamic states.

4. A commercial legal system:  A commercial legal system is the Marxist socialist economies of Russia and the Republic of the former Soviet Union, Eastern Europe, china and other Marxist – socialist states whose legal system centered on the Economic, Political, and the social policies of the state.

As socialist countries become more directly involved in trade with non-Marxist countries it has been necessary to develop a commercial legal system that permits them to engage in active international commerce.
