Earlier Law was classified broadly into two categories first one civil law and the second one criminal law. But the philosopher like Austin etc. are not agreed with this concept, so a globalisation approach to classifying the Law was adopted and according to that Law can be classified into the following two categories.
1.International Law
2. Municipal Law
Further International Law can be classified into two categories
1. Public Law- There is some etiquette between two countries or more than two countries that should be followed accordingly.
2 Private law - It is between any sovereign country and a party
Municipal Law is based on the Law which is in the territory of any Nation.It can be classified into three categories
1. Constitutional Law- That describes the nature of the three organs of a country, i.e. Legislative Judiciary and Executive
2. Administrative law- It describes the relationship between different government bodies. How they have to function in inter-ministerial work
3. Criminal Law- If a person intentionally or not intentionally doing any act of crime then he is dangerous to our social system So criminal Law is very Important
Apart from the above the law there is the various law that depends on place time custom etc. but the primary motive of an act should be that it reflects the spirit of the common man.
