Law as an Instrument for Change

Law as a tool of change I remember killing a pig for the first time. This was my 23rd birthday and I lived in Portrero Ybate for 10 months. Portrero Ybate is a small village in Paraguay, I volunteered for the Peace Corps. When I killed a pig, I not only celebrated my birthday Paraguay style, but also I celebrated the turning point of my service. Finally I finally succeeded in learning the language of the land, I felt that I was recognized in the communities to which I was assigned and became valuable technical resources for subtropical forestry and agriculture.

Law and literature are tools for change. In addition, literature and laws can provide voices to people who are traditionally silent. Just like listening to others through literature, I would like to use my voice in the legal field and say "unfair" to those who are not heard. I would like to have a positive impact on the lives of women and all people in civil, criminal and law schools.

Legislation is part of cultural discourse and can be used as a barrier to social change or as positive support for change. This is especially true for family law where the law is not neutral. I think that the two principles should be used if the law acts to resolve cultural conflicts: the principle of opposition and the principle of limited moralism. . You should ask whether you are going to impose rules that go beyond cultural changes, cultural values ​​2 In other words, you should not ask the law to complete social changes that society does not want to support. "Only legal regulations without positive and meaningful support may be compromised by power, culture, or both.

Family law and legal support confirm the role of cultural change. It does not harm the opposite principle or conflict with the principle of limited instrumentalism. Essentially, we have performed multiple patriarchies for our children, but since it may promote positive outcomes for children, multiple fathers are not always strongly supported . The more difficult problem is how to achieve multiple patriarchies. In the first part of this article, I will explain the background of patriarchy. In the second part, I propose a range of possible patriarchal models and advocate a model that is not equal to a common but central father. In Part 3 we discussed several questions regarding the implementation of the model. Finally, I return to legal channel function and evaluate the role of law in culture.
