Exploring the nuances of jurisprudence, this book delves into the role of law in judicial decision-making, particularly highlighting the contrast between common law and Romano-Germanic legal traditions. In common law systems, case law significantly influences judicial outcomes, with appellate court decisions binding lower courts, rooted in the principle of stare decisis.

Die Bedeutung der Rechtsprechung als Quelle des Rechts wird eingehend betrachtet, insbesondere im Kontext des Common Law, wo Urteile von Berufungsgerichten bindend sind und die Entwicklung des Rechts maßgeblich beeinflussen. Der Grundsatz "stare decisis" spielt eine zentrale Rolle, da er die Kontinuität und Vorhersehbarkeit in der Rechtsprechung gewährleistet. Im Gegensatz dazu wird in romanisch-germanischen Rechtssystemen der Rechtsprechung weniger Gewicht beigemessen, da hier die Gesetzgebung als primäre Quelle des Rechts angesehen wird.
