Karl Marx, Max Weber and Emile Durkheim on Law and Punishment
Abstract

Introduction

Sociological theory has extensively reflected on the relationship between law and society. The classical sociological thoughts of Karl Marx, Max Weber, and Emile Durkheim have influenced such reflections in different ways, enabling varied perspectives. Durkheim and Weber had written relatively more on law than Marx (Deflem, 2008; and Greenhouse, 2011).
