Abstract

The following work discusses the use of the idea of History in books on the History of Law, with the aim of the text to problematize the use (or non-use) of research sources. It concludes that an absence of references to historical sources results in a flaw in the study of the History of Law, Philosophy of Law, and Comparative Law. The article also discusses the exclusive use of laws as sources for historical-legal research and the importance of the development of academic protocols in the production of scientific works in the legal studies.
