Resumo:This article presents ideal types of law in view of the law’s evolvement through history, and also concerning its contemporary manifestation. The presented ideal types of law have been developed on the basis of two great typologies: Weber’s and Jung’s. The starting point of my analysis is Weber’s ideal types of law. I tried to understand them in the light of Jung’s psychological types, however, this lead me to their modification with regard to their original understanding by Weber. In every individual certain cognitive functions prevail so is the case with every social community. Also with respect to law, both in terms of time and place – we can find proof for that in legal history and legal geography (i.e. comparative law). Concerning the four cognitive functions four general types of law can be developed, and on the basis of the influence of auxiliary functions on the dominant functions these can be further developed to eight specific types of law.
