It is based on the conviction, gained in research in the sociology of law, that sociology has more to say about law than its disciplinary surface reveals and than its self-descriptions allow. Responsive sociology of law, it is argued, can be formulated as a discourse of practice in the sociology of law based on the scientific autonomy of sociology. Responsiveness then denotes a form of interdisciplinarity that does not amount to the mere absorption of sociological insights by jurisprudence, but envisages a symmetrical arrangement of mutual relations. The Author Dr. phil. Alfons Bora, Ass. iur., is Professor emeritus of Sociology at Bielefeld University.
