The roots of modern Western legal institutions and concepts go back nine centuries to the Papal Revolution, when the Western church established its political and legal unity and its independence from emperors, kings, and feudal lords. Out of this upheaval came the Western idea of integrated legal systems consciously developed over generations and centuries. Harold J. Berman describes the main features of these systems of law, including the canon law of the church, the royal law of the major kingdoms, the urban law of the newly emerging cities, feudal law, manorial law, and mercantile law. In the coexistence and competition of these systems he finds an important source of the Western belief in the supremacy of law. Written simply and dramatically, carrying a wealth of detail for the scholar but also a fascinating story for the layman, the book grapples with wideranging questions of our heritage and our future. One of its main themes is the interaction between the Western belief in legal evolution and the periodic outbreak of apocalyptic revolutionary upheavals. Berman challenges conventional nationalist approaches to legal history, which have neglected the common foundations of all Western legal systems. He also questions conventional social theory, which has paid insufficient attention to the origin of modem Western legal systems and has therefore misjudged the nature of the crisis of the legal tradition in the twentieth century.

讀後感
法律来自西方。无论是大陆法系，还是普通法系， 再或者是所谓的社会主义法系，概莫能外。尽管我们会争辩说：中国也有曾像《唐律疏议》或者《大清律例》这样的律法。但别忘了，自清末修律开始，传统的法律被我们扔的干干净净。所以，我们不得不把视角挪向西方，而我也曾激进得认...
評分作为本学期元典研读的首次收官，伯尔曼的这本《法律与革命》第一卷，无论是智识性和思辨性，还是信息量和震撼感，都属近来少有的。上次给我如此感悟的还是一年多前，读德沃金的遗著《没有上帝的宗教》。有趣的是，这两本在内容上都涉及宗教与信仰，但深层的学术脉络和观念取向...

評分读这本书是法学学生必须要做的功课。但是坦诚的说，读这本书需要的历史和法制史基础还是蛮高的。看第一遍的时候我是边看边忘，现在偶尔翻翻，感觉还是有点距离感，不知道是不是翻译的问题。 教会法一章写的真是精彩。
評分伯老写这本书的目的是希望通过对西方法律传统的历史梳理来找到他眼中解决当代西方法律传统所遇的灭顶之灾的办法。不难看出我们红本教材的很多观点（例如法律工具论）正符合他书中列举的当代西法统的危机的表现形式。红本这样的教材让大一新生读，真的有利于我们的法学生群体解...
