LAW, SCIENCE AND EDUCATION: INTERSYSTEM RELATIONSHIPS/O DIREITO, A CIENCIA E A EDUCACAO: RELACOES INTERSISTEMICAS

This article advances a theoretical approach to the necessity of becoming aware of systematic relationships between Law, Education and Science as a possibility of overcoming the reproduction of knowledge in order to enable the law system to offer more suitable answers to the rights that emerge in this complex and organized society. Under the light of Niklas Luhmann's pragmatic-systemic theory and its contemporary re-readings, limits are pointed and possibilities of intersystem interferences of the Education and Law Science in the Legal system, since all those are operationally-closed systems , but cognitively open. Conclusions are that, due to autopoiesis, it is not possible to directly transpose scientific legal production, nor even of knowledge built at Universities, to the legal system, so posing obstacles to significant changes in the system. It points out anyway that more significant changes to fit new social demands to the system may become more feasible by means of the identification of communication events able to introduce effective noise in the Law System.
