譯文（字數(shù) 3099）：

　　　迄今為止，我們一直關(guān)注的是規(guī)范性法律理論，這種理論致力于從法律內(nèi)部解釋法律的概念。也就是說，規(guī)范性法律理論關(guān)注法律原則和規(guī)則、概念原則與法庭和律師在實際法律實踐中所運用的其他觀念之間的關(guān)系。但還有另一法律分析的研究路徑，它試圖通過訴訟現(xiàn)象運行的社會環(huán)境來理解這些現(xiàn)象的本質(zhì)。這種社會學(xué)方法對法哲學(xué)產(chǎn)生了相當大的影響，雖然這種影響通常不被人承認。

  法律的社會學(xué)闡釋通常要依賴三個緊密相連的主張，除非把法律看成是一種“社會現(xiàn)象”，否則無法理解，法律對法律概念的分析只能提供對“運行中的法律”的一種部分解釋；法律僅僅是社會控制的一種形式。………………

That is to say, normative legal theory concentrates on legal doctrine and the relations between rules, concepts, principles, and other constructs employed by courts and lawyers engaged in the actual practice of the law. But there is another approach to legal analysis that attempts to understand the nature of these phenomena by reference to the social conditions in which they fuction,.This sociological approach has exercised a considerable influence, often unacknowledged, on the philosophy of law.

　　　  A sociological account of law normally rests on three closely related claims:that law can not be understood except as a “social phenomenon”,that an analysis of legal concepts provides only a partial explanation of “law in action”, and that law is merely one form of social control.………………
