Description
Definition of the term “Law”
There is generally no acceptable definition of the word law. Different schools of Law define it differently. Some important definitions of law include: -
1. Woodrow Wilson, has defined law in the words “That portion of the established thought and habit
which has gained distinct and formal recognition in the shape of uniform laws, backed by authority and power of government”
2. According to Holland, “A law is a general rule of external human action enforced by sovereign political authority”
3. In the words of Salmond, “Law is a body of principles recognized and applied by the state in the administration of justice”.
4. Law may also be defined as” a rule of human conduct, imposed upon and enforced among the members of a given state”.
From the above definitions, we may conclude that law refers to “a set of rules or principles that govern the conduct of affairs in a given community at a given time, whereby machinery is provided for an aggrieved party to enforce his right in case any of these rules or principle is broken.
