Remarks by Harold J. Berman
No full textI shall focus attention, in the brief time allotted, on the role of the U.S. Government in promoting trade with the Communist countries, having in mind not the larger political and economic questions which underlie governmental action but the institutional questions arising from the fact that the entire foreign trade of Communist countries is conducted by state agencies, operating under a system of national economic planning, while the foreign trade of the United States, as that of other market economies, is conducted primarily by individual, privately owned business units operating more or less independently of government.</jats:p

No full textIn the 20th century, a specifically normative integration of Western civilization collapsed – and in the 20th century all paradigms corresponding to this system lost their meaning. The symbols of a great Western (legal-) society regressed into nothing more than shallow and abstract nationalisms; visions of a just community were transformed into the law of nation-focused social engineers on both sides of the iron curtain. Expedience, practicability, and the reduction of law to an apparatus of technical tricks, replaced fundamental legal convictions. A world ends when its metaphor has died. These are the core theories in Harold J. Berman’s book Law and Revolution: The Formation of the Western Legal Tradition, which made him famous.
Foi no século XX que uma particular integração normativa Ocidental entrou em colapso – e foi no século XX que todos os paradigmas correspondentes a esse sistema perderam seu significado. Os símbolos da grande sociedade (jurídico) Ocidental regrediram a nada mais que nacionalismos abstratos e superficiais; visões de uma comunidade justa foram transformadas por uma engenharia social em ambos os lados da cortina de ferro, em um direito focado no Estado Nacional. Eficiência, praticidade, e a redução do direito a um aparato de truques técnicos, substituíram convicções legais fundamentais. Um mundo acaba quando sua metáfora morre. Essas são as teorias centrais no livro Law and Revolution: The formation of Western Legal Tradition de Harold J. Berman (publicado em português pela editora Unisinos como Direito e Revolução: A formação da tradição jurídica Ocidental), que o tornou famoso

Jahrhundert ist eine spezifisch normative Integration der westlichen Zivilisation zusammengebrochen, womit auch die darauf zugeschnittenen Paradigmen ihre Substanz verloren haben. Aus den Symbolen einer großen abendländischen (Rechts-)Gemeinschaft wurden flache und abstrakte Nationalismen, aus der Vision einer gerechten Gemeinschaft das Recht von staatsfixierten Sozialingenieuren diesseits und jenseits des Eisernen Vorhangs. Zweckmäßigkeit und Praktikabilität, das Herunterbringen des Rechts auf einen Apparat technischer Kunstgriffe, traten an die Stelle grundsätzlicher Rechtsüberzeugungen. A world ends when its metaphor has died. Das sind, leicht zugespitzt, die Kernthesen des Buches, mit dem Harold J. Berman berühmt geworden ist: Law and Revolution: The Formation of the Western Legal Tradition
