Distinguish a legal system from a legal tradition
What will be an ideal response?
Legal system refers to a country’s legal institutions, procedures, and rules.
A legal tradition provides a legal system’s cultural context by identifying the system’s attitudes about such things as the nature of law, the role of law in society, how a legal system should be organized and operate, and how law is or should be made, applied, or perfected.
No legal system is a pure example of a particular legal tradition.
