威利斯顿将法律视为社会的产物,它必须由实践来验证。他在著作中指出,法律是一门科学,但它也是一门需要实践检验的科学。只有时刻关注判例,才能使学者不会过于理论化,不会同社会脱节。 Williston regarded law as a product of society, and it must be verified by practice. In his book, he pointed out that law is a science, but it is also a science that needs to be tested in practice. Only by always paying attention to the precedents can the scholars not be too theorized and will not be out of touch with the society.
