Sociological jurisprudence is a legal theory that emphasizes the social context and impact of law. It focuses on how laws reflect and interact with social norms, values, and institutions. This approach considers the effects of law on society and aims to improve legal institutions for the betterment of society as a whole.
Main proponents of Sociological Jurisprudence include Roscoe Pound, Eugen Ehrlich, and Karl Renner. They emphasized the importance of considering societal factors in legal decision-making and understanding the law as a reflection of social norms and values.
Jurisprudence studies the philosophy of law, focusing on the nature of law and its principles, while sociology examines the role of law in society, studying how legal systems impact social behavior and structures. Jurisprudence is more theoretical and abstract, while sociology is more empirical and practical in its approach to understanding the legal system and its effects. Both disciplines overlap in their analysis of law, but from different perspectives and with different methodologies.
Sociological research examines patterns of behavior within society to understand how individuals and groups interact.

The founder of the school of sociological jurisprudence was Roscoe Pound. He believed that the law should adapt and evolve to meet the changing needs of society, emphasizing the importance of considering social conditions in legal interpretation.
