Abstract

53 0 THE AMERICAN JOURNAL OF COMPARATIVE LAW the ethical principles which the West professes and all its economic and technical knowledge, it has not been able to cope effectively with poverty and starvation which grip between one half and two thirds of mankind (cf. Andre Tunc, Sortir du niolitique, in Dalloz 1957, chr. p. 71 et seq., and Les Facultis de droit et les grands problemes du monde contemporain, in Dalloz 1958, chr. p . 189 et seq.). Law is not the need of the world. Th e world is craving for justice, tolerance, charity. A law applied to an unjust situation and which does not tend to correct it can only perpetuate injustice and pre­ pare uprisings. A law which is not a machinery for permitting all men to obtain a higher satisfaction of all their needs (including the spiritual and familial ones) is a useless law. If Dean Savatier is not especially concerned with the world-wide dimen­ sions of the present problems confronting lawyers, at least, on a national level, his Metamorphoses, Second Series, are a vigorous and persuasive plea for "the insertion of legal sciences in a renewed universalism."
