L'étude des rapports dialectiques entre Droit et Culture mérite un examen approfondi à une époque où la diversité culturelle et la complexité des systèmes juridiques pourraient être menacées d'une uniformisation excessive... Tel fut le propos des journées internationales 2008 de l'Association Henry Capitant des amis de la culture juridique française qui tinrent en Louisiane, à Baton Rouge puis à La Nouvelle Orléans, du 19 au 23 mai 2008 : ce 58e tome de la Collection des Travaux de l'Association Henri Capitant des amis de la culture juridique française rassemble sur ce dernier sujet les réflexions comparatistes de 42 rapporteurs de renom issus de 19 pays. Quatre grands thèmes furent le support d'échanges pertinents : le droit civil certes, mais aussi le droit international public, le droit des affaires et le droit judiciaire y sont tous confrontés à la question culturelle. Il fut certes rappelé lors de ces journées qu'un système juridique est le produit d'une culture donnée, la diversité culturelle dictant la richesse des droits eux-mêmes : depuis Savigny, le droit exprime l'âme et la civilisation d'un peuple. Partant, l'évolution des philosophies (du « laissez faire laissez passer » à la protection de la partie faible...), des moeurs (de la famille légitime aux familles naturelles ou recomposées...) ou encore des technologies (du papier à l'internet...) contribue certes à déterminer le nouveau visage du droit vivant. Mais il peut en aller autrement lorsqu'un système juridique est, à des degrés divers, imposé ou adopté par un Etat. Hier, le Code civil français de 1804 se diffusa à l'Europe entière à la force de la baïonnettes napoléoniennes; aujourd'hui, le vent de l'Union européenne (« droit venu d'ailleurs » d'après Jean Carbonnier) souffle en faveur d'une intégration régionale des 27 pays membres; et demain le métissage des droits pourrait conduire à un appauvrissement par l'apparition d'un esperanto du droit, utilitaire et sans véritable socle culturel. La greffe juridique peut-elle durablement prendre, voire faire évoluer en retour la culture du pays ? Non sans paradoxe, le droit lui-même s'inquiète d'une possible uniformisation des cultures : adoptée à Paris le 20 octobre 2005, la Convention des Nations-Unies sur la protection et la promotion de la diversité des expressions culturelles en est une illustration. Moteur du droit, la culture est donc dans le même temps une valeur protégée par ce dernier. Tout esprit curieux retirera le plus grand profit de la lecture des riches contributions présentées au cours de ces journées...

The book’s argument moves from discussing the relation between law and power. Theories defending the primacy of law over power are played against doctrines which center around the prevailing role of law. Legal positivism and natural law are here the real issue at stake. Constitutionalism and the rule of law are then seen as a development of the modern natural law tradition. But the book’s main move is a consideration of law as a phenomenon possibly connected with language. Once traditional imperativist strategies are seen as unsatisfactory, and nevertheless law is accepted as being a social fact, there is the possibility of addressing such fact as somehow analogically linked with a system of language. In a sense, language is thought of as fundamental or primordial ontological dimension, so that this can offer the key to address and understand the question of what reality is. The question of meaning overlaps that of being, not only as far as the being of the world is concerned but also with respect to the nature of law. The concept of law -could not be approached without addressing the issue of law as a language. To this purpose "use theory" is assessed and taken as a possible candidate to build up a sensible theory of legal validity. From this angle institutionalism is then seen to be the most fruitful approach to conceptualize the ontology of law, though some reform in the standard theory and in its more recent developments is proposed to render more plausible the notion of "institution". Finally, the strong normative side of a (legal) institution is studied. The relation of law and morality is assessed by pointing out the difference between the "constitutive" character of law and the "regulative" core of morality. However, an institution is both an "is" and an "ought", while law is at the same time "facticity" and "normativity.
