In the praetor-discourse one important issue stands out: Law was not only a category of politics, but also an independent system with a logic of its own. And this logic should be the specific field of the legal specialists. In this respect the legal scientists in many ways regarded themselves as an integral part of the constitutional state with the explicit task of guarding the formality and internal consistency of law.The same dilemmas exist today. But one important change is the steady growing bureaucracies of the modern parliaments which we perhaps somewhat provocatively may see as having attained the role that was once ascribed to the 19th century imagined praetor - and one may still wonder about the scope of democracy here as well. re cht swi s s e n scha f t al s j ur i st i sch e dok t r i n 192
