In it, he discussed the preventive nature of laws and punishment.[2] In the same year he was hired as a lecturer at the University of Oslo.[6] He was promoted to professor of the sociology of law in 1963.[2] This institution was, and still is, a part of the Faculty of Law.[3] Books in the field of sociology of law include Likhet og rett (1963), Rettssosiologi (1968) and Rettens sosiale funksjon (1976).[2] Continuity and Development in Law and Society was published posthumously in 1989.[1]
