First sentence: FOR twenty-four hundred years-from the Greek thinkers of the fifth century B.C. who asked whether right was right by nature or only by enactment and convention, to the social philosophers of today, who seek the ends, the ethical basis and the enduring principles of social control-the philosophy of law has taken a leading role in all study of human institutions.
