HERITAGE OF DURKHEIM’S SOCIO-LEGAL THOUGHT

Summary/Abstract: Durkheim’s The Divison of Labour in Society (1893), one of the most fundamental works in sociology of law, emerged from the intellectual climate of convergence between new founded science of sociology and legal science in France during the end of XIX and the beginning of XX century. Durkheim’s insights and ideas on law and society indirectly inspired classical legal theory and formed sociology of law in former Yugoslavia. Also, Durkheim has been left out of the dominant discourses of sociology of law on global scale until 1990’s. Objective of this paper is to point out to: a) indirect Durkheim’s contribution to formation of domestic socio-legal thought and b) representations of his ideas in a reactualised paradigm of relations between society, law and moral in the discourses of global sociology of law. Paper follows a threefold structure: Émile Durkheim as a founder of sociology of law and intelectual climate of convergence between sociology and legal science (i), French influence on formation of theory of law and sociology of law and their developments in former Yugoslavia (ii) and “comeback to Durkheim” on the global scale of sociology of law (iii).
