Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Index to Legal Periodical Literature, 1887-1899, Vol. 2 The general plan of this volume is the same as that of my Index pub lished in 1888, a portion of the Preface to which is now reprinted. In one respect, however, this volume difi'ers, not in plan, but in result, from the former; and that is it contains many more references to articles relating to Legal Science in general, and many more references to articles relating to Political Science, to Economics, and to Sociology for in the years since the former Index was compiled, the Bar Associations organized in many States have published a great number of addresses, papers, and reports upon general, rather than technical, subjects connected with the law; and since that time also there have appeared numerous periodical publications devoted to subjects which have an important, if not direct, bearing upon Law and Legislation. As Professor Hadley, now President of Yale University, said in a recent address: The scientific study of the law has had and still has a close affiliation with the scientific study of political economy. This affiliation between economics and jurisprudence is manifest alike in their data, their methods, and their conclusions. The fundamental datum of modern economics is property right. This is also the datum and starting point of a large part of our legal reasoning. The method of the economist is a combination of the historical and the deductive. He studies the pre cedent by which property right has been established on the one hand, and deduces the consequences arising from such property rights on the other hand. This combination is also characteristic of the methods of the Judiciary; the chief difference between economists and court being that the economist considers how the individual judgment will act under the given conditions, while the court considers how the public judgment will act. The scope of the present Index is therefore somewhat wider than that of the first volume. It includes articles upon Law, Legislation, Political Science, Economics, Sociology, and Legal Biography in all journals in the English language published since the beginning of the year°1887 down to the beginning of the present year.
