The article illustrates the conception of law present in the work of Émile Durkheim- through the analysis, in particular, of the book on the division of labour(De la division du travail social) - for the purpose of highlighting the ascendancythereof on institutionalistic theories of law. The tie that Durkheim identifies betweenthe legal system and the 'social conscience' proper to the society whichthat system expresses - a tie that induces the French sociologist to define law asthe 'visible face' of socially shared mores - represents the fundamental idea beginningfrom which the institutionalistic legal theories were later developed, thedistinctive trait of which is precisely the intimate connection between law andsocial order. After having briefly illustrated how this common matrix after Durkheimhas been elaborated differently by authors such as Maurice Hauriou, SantiRomano and Léon Duguit, the work concludes with some observations on thecontribution of intuitionalists to reflection on the foundation of validity of the legalsystem, maintaining that the way in which these scholars resolve the problempresupposes a notion of society that, going beyond the individual contributionsthat concur to form it, clearly draws on Durkheim's thought.
