摘要

The enthusiasm for the new area (of Legal expert systems) - particularly in the early 1980s -was substantial, and this author was a reasonably early convert to the idea, starting a PhD project in around 1981 in a department of computer science. Quite quickly, though, critical insight developed and my position became much more sceptical of the value of expert systems in law. Such scepticism was not at a premium during the 1980s - in a kind of gold rush of research funding for any project which had the requisite buzz words and made sufficiently grandiose claims, criticism was seen to be letting the side down. One underlying objection I had to the expert system concept was to the notion of being able to formalise knowledge through some logical or semi-logical formalism. A formalism is, of course, essential in computing (the basic foundation of the subject being 'program = algorithm + data)' and the difficulty of doing this suggested to me that legal knowledge therefore couldn't be so simply handled as proponents argued.
