  • I saw this book at the library and got interested in what Law is all about, so I decided to read it.

    • It was quite interesting.
  • When there is a dispute over the interpretation of legal terms, etc., the following methods are used to narrow down the interpretation:

    • Teleological Interpretation
      • Sometimes, the purpose is stated in the preamble of the law, so the interpretation is narrowed down based on that.
        • I see, it makes sense to narrow down the interpretation based on the purpose rather than just the wording.
      • In addition, the intention is inferred from the discussions in the parliament during the formulation of the law.
    • Systematic Interpretation
      • The interpretation is narrowed down by considering other provisions.
    • Balancing of Interests
      • The interpretation is narrowed down by considering which interpretation would distribute the benefits evenly.
  • I used to think that only systematic interpretation was used (blu3mo).

    • I thought that all the information contained in the provisions was used.
    • I had the image that the interpretation was narrowed down uniquely by excluding the context of the formulation.
    • But when I think about it calmly, it’s impossible to narrow down the interpretation with just that, and I can understand why it’s done this way.
