Many decades ago Ofner of Vienna pointed out the possibility
of instituting a direct investigation of the sense of law and right
(Rechtsgefiihl) by means of juristic experiment. A year ago
Kobler discussed the idea in detail in the Vienna Juristische
Blatter, and actually instituted experiments in the Freie
juristische Vereini~ gung, which he himself had founded.
Actual or fictitious law cases, even entire court proceedings,
are being submitted to the persons who are being used for the
experiment, who must not be jurists, and who are requested to
express an opinion on them. They can do this only by relying
on their sense of law and right. Is not everyone reminded of the
psychometry of the school of Fechner and Wundt? These tests
are open to the same objections that have been urged against
psychometry. The person who permits himself to be used for
the experiment is not in his usual frame of mind, and he knows,
too, that his judgment does not decide the case; the fictitious
case arouses no passions, does not agitate the emotions, but
addresses itself to the intellect alone. These are sources of error
which a correct method must compute and take into account. In
spite of this however the attempt will produce valuable results,
provided one does not forget about the sources of error.
Method is as infinite as science itself.
