Thirdly, doctrinal legal reseach does not involve a study of the factors that lie outside law or legal system but have directly or indirectly influenced the operation of the law, a legal rule, concept or doctrine. Sometimes the prevailing stakes and prejudices of a dominant social group may hamper the hamper the law’s operation and success. A study of such extra-legal factors, interests and prejudices, therefore, becomes necessary for understanding their role and contribution in making the law or doctrine effective, less effective in its operation. Such a study also becomes desirable, rather inevitable, to devise appropriate legislative or policy-oriented measures to do away with the factors that are desisting /have desisted the law to be effective or to minimize their adverse effects on the law’s performance. Doctrinal legal research pracyically overlooks the need to study these factors.
