His healing abilities gave legitimacy to vodun and meant people looked for him other than to cure their illnesses. This threatened the…

Weber specifies formal and substantive rationality in terms of law making (legislation) and law finding (adjudication) as the two central aspects of law. Weber categorizes law making and law finding processes based on their rationality and formality. This leads to a classification of law as rational or irrational according to either their formal or substantive aspects.
