Document Summary
Duties: two parts in a duty, the agent who has the duty and what he"s obligated to perform. Rules that impose duties are called mandatory rules. The content indicated what the addressee of the duty is obligated to do. A prohibition is nothing more than a duty that prohibits from doing something. A duty is typically imposed by a rule that attaches the duty to a particular status of the agent. It"s usually assumed that anyone can do something unless it"s explicitly forbidden. Nevertheless, the law has a function for permissive rules and explicit permission: this function is to make an exception for what is generally forbidden. Giving permission is a juridical act through which an exception is created on a general prohibition. Permission/competence: permission has to do with what one"s allowed to do. Any kind of action may be the object of permission.
