Law matters, but where? It´s often taken for granted, that law is binding everywhere. By this I mean that people usually think of a law as universaly binding to any given place in a given jurisdiction. In regard to this general claim, I would like to point out, that this might be true in some cases, but what is substantial, is the context. In other words, the question is "Where a law binds?". Let me begin with a city. If you live in a city or are interested in it, as it should be almost sure these days, then you might try to pay a slight piece of attention, when it comes f. e. to the sorrounding of the place where you live. Are there any places where you are not supposed to walk? Can you do everything in your beloved park? Because I live in Prague and have a dog, I find a lot of restrictions on free movement of dogs in many places. Some of them are legal norms, some of them "only" social norms. Therefore, I usually ask myself, who sets these norms? Why are they there? Who benefit from them? Can I change them? These are questions, which spring to my mind very often. I haven´t been able to answer them clearly. The only thing I know is, that somewhere we can move freely and somewhere not.
