法律

When I used to teach civil procedure as a law professor, I would begin the year by telling my students that 'civil procedure is the etiquette of ritualized battle.' The phrase, which did not originate with me, captured the point that peaceful, developed societies resolve disputes by law rather than by force.

当我曾经作为一名法学教授教授民事诉讼时，我会在一开始就告诉我的学生，民事诉讼是仪式化战斗的礼仪。这句话并非出自我之口，它抓住了一个要点，即和平、发达的社会通过法律而不是武力解决争端。
