Jurilog

“The notion of condition in Law takes place in different settings, in different times. The particularities of each one of these conditions involve different consequences. These consequences have rather real influences, even if the conditions can be fictive themselves. While conditions constitute a central theme for jurisprudence, the multiplicity of the notion of condition represents also a central theme for the History of Logic. Nevertheless, it is well known that the jurisprudential perspective and the philosophical perspective do not blend naturally, without any problem. It is due to this fact that the present project takes as a mission the study of the tensions in the relations between Law and Logic, and this study will be accomplished according to three particularly significant contexts: the ancient Roman period, G. W. Leibniz, and the contemporary Law. The main objective of the project is the coordination of the juridical and logical aspects of the notion of condition, in order to promote in a decisive manner the constitution of a universal juridical logic. The three periods already mentionned are historically relevant, each one for their own reasons, and they will represent our three main research points. They constitute a connection between logical and juridical approach of the notion of condition, and they manifest through the History the conscience of a special problematic, which raises many discussions in the contemporary research. It is evident by the description that we have rendered that the problematic of our project concerns the writings of Leibniz and, according to our approach, we also suggest that the framework of the dialogical logic, which nowadays reaches significant improvements, represents a promising background for the philosophical interpretation of it. Thus, we expect to open new perspectives in the study of the challenge of the interface between juridical representation and logical modeling in each one of the three researching points mentioned above, but also in a transversal manner across them.”
