Does the work of Georges Gurvitch currently lend itself, to a legalistic reading of administrative law? What use can be made of it by a sociology which deconstructs the state and clearly affirms legal pluralism? To these questions we can envisage a two-step answer. Firstly, it must be recognized that the sociology of law developed by Georges Gurvitch can be very helpful in the analysis of law’s administrative structures as well as of a certain number of legal categories. Secondly, this pluralist approach leads to conceptualizing the relationships contained within the law as being characterized by conflict and the scientific discourse as one that is a radical critique.
