    The Origins of the Legal Profession and Its Bridging Function: Roman Law, the Turkestan Legal Tradition, and Modern Legal Theory

    Dilshodbek Kenjaboyev

    Society and Innovations, 2026, vol. 7, no. 9/S, pp. 270–282 · DOI 10.47689/2181-1415-vol7-iss9/S-pp270-282

    Abstract

    The article examines the origins of legal advocacy through its function of mediating between individuals and the law. Drawing on Roman sources, al-Marghinani’s al-Hidaya and the practice of qadi courts in Turkestan, it argues that publishing legal rules does not remove information asymmetry but shifts it to interpretation and procedure, and that the enduring function of advocacy is a bridging one.
