Concept information

Preferred term

political law  

Definition(s)

  • The term political law refers to a growing branch of the study of the state and of governing that (1) compiles all the legal and other types of instruments dealing with the structure of the state and the processes of governing besides the constitution itself; (2) examines the interactions among law, public policy and administration, and politics; and (3) investigates the influence and impact of law on the other forces at work in democratic governing. Political law transcends the intellectual boundary between law and political science and draws on both social disciplines. [Source: The Encyclopedia of Political Science; Political Law]
