"Jurisprudence is lawyers extroversion."
Julius Stone’s famous definition—"Jurisprudence is the lawyer's extraversion"—challenges the idea that law is a self-contained, isolated system of rules. Writing in his book Legal System and Lawyer's Reasonings (1964), Stone argued that jurisprudence is the lawyer's examination of legal precepts, ideals, and techniques in the light of knowledge derived from other disciplines.
In this context, "extraversion" (or extroversion) refers to the act of looking outward. Stone categorized jurisprudence into three fields where this "extraversion" occurs:
(i) Analytical Jurisprudence
(ii) Sociological (Functional) Jurisprudence.
(iii) Ethical (Critical) Jurisprudence
