Study Notes

General and Particular Jurisprudence

General Jurisprudence focuses on fundamental legal concepts and principles that apply universally across legal systems, such as the nature of law, rights, and justice.
Particular Jurisprudence examines specific legal systems, doctrines, or areas of law within a particular context or jurisdiction, such as constitutional law, criminal law, or contract law in a specific country.

Expository and Censorial Jurisprudence

Expository Jurisprudence aims to explain and interpret existing legal principles, doctrines, and rules within a legal system without necessarily passing judgment on their validity or morality.
Censorial Jurisprudence involves evaluating and critiquing existing legal norms, principles, and institutions based on ethical, moral, or philosophical grounds, assessing the legitimacy, fairness, and justice of legal rules and practices.
