Indeks : p.355-357 The history of various civilizations, their antropology and their philosophy, however, tell us that civilizations have developed different concepts as their fundamental principles of social organization. Law is only one such principle, which, in Western civilization, is derived from the Greek concept of nomo. The Chinese civilization has its dharma, whose meaning is broader than law alone. Fundamental to the formation of these principles in the various civilizations has been their respective cosmologies, that is to say, their views of the relationship between man and his universe. The nomon cosmology, in which order is imposed from outside, has produced an abstract way of thinking and speculating about the laws of nature. This has generated the potential for man-made law.
