Austin, John

   Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Legal, Encyclopedia, Wikipedia 0.03 sec.

Austin, John (1790–1859)

English jurist. His analysis of the chaotic state of the English legal system led him to define law as the enforceable command of a sovereign authority, thus distinguishing it from other kinds of rules and from morality. His work had a strong impact on jurisprudential thought, though many of his ideas were derived from his friend Jeremy Bentham. He was professor of jurisprudence at the University of London 1826–35.
