custom

The custom is an act repeated routinely. In addition, I influence culture of the land. It is an acquired behavior pattern, and it is immobilized in what I repeat it, and is performed. Thought is mental and, other than physical behavior, includes a psychological tendency. Because a place influencing human nature line is big, "the custom is called the second nature".

The custom points at a personal behavior pattern basically, but is called "custom" when it came to be shared by a certain group. Unlike a personal custom, the custom of the community demands the observance of the custom for a member to keep group internal directionality and homogeneity, and there can be the thing that a kind of sanctions (ridicule / criticism) are added for a violator.

While, according to Emile Durkheim, as for the custom, it is used; is not reflected. It will be reflected only after a custom becomes outdated. Because the child persisted in a custom and changed to other customs by a suggestion easily, I thought even if I could apply this nature of the child to moral education.

A tendency to act in a custom becomes strong, and, after an adult, the correction generally becomes difficult as much as I become old.

Among the custom such as the behavior patterns which I repeat it among the people of a constant range with the customary law, and came to be performed, I say a thing having the effect as the law. It is the one of the unwritten grammar. There is the way of thinking to include a case law in a customary law.

When (as the civil law) does custom become the customary law; "the awareness" of people?(opinio necessitatis) There are a viewpoint to do according to the support and a situation assuming that a nation accepts it as law.
