Position and Change

Exploring the intersection of law and logic, this study investigates whether common fundamental patterns exist across legal systems. It challenges traditional approaches by focusing specifically on legal matters rather than general deontic logic. The inquiry aims to establish a straightforward logical framework that allows for substantive legal conclusions derived from basic concepts. Notable figures like W. N. Hohfeld, Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, and Jeremy Bentham are discussed for their contributions to this field, with particular emphasis on the overlooked works of Leibniz.
