6. Reason for the emergence of Sociological School Laissez-faire :- policy of minimum governmental interference in the economic affairs of individuals and society. Due to Laissez-faire all people started giving importance to individual interest and ignored the general interest. The Sociological School came out as a reaction against the laissez-faire, because Sociological School advocates the balance between the welfare of the state and individual interest.

7. Introduction to Theory:- Roscoe Pound gives the theory of Social Engineering Where he compared lawyers with the engineers Engineers are required to use their engineering skills to manufacture new products Similarly, social engineers are required to build that type of structure in the society which provides maximum happiness and minimum friction.

8. Important points :- He compared Engineers with Lawyers. Engineers are used to use their engineering skills to manufacture new product, similarly social engineers means advocates, lawyers are required to build that type of structure in society which provides maximum happiness and minimum friction. He basically focused on Social Engineering Legislatures should make laws to maintain balance in interest of society. As our Constitution gives Freedom of Speech in Article 19, but there are also restrictions to maintain balance.(He should not defame others) He was balancing Interest. (Which is explained in Theory of Interest)

9. Criticism Pound’s theory of Social Engineering has been criticized for its use of term engineering, which equates society to a factory like a mechanism. Law is a Social process rather than the result of applied organism. Another criticism against pound is that he ignored ideals of guidance. Criticism for whole Sociological School is – It undermines individual interest
