*  Resum6       La nouvelle revue  Communitas  a plac6 les id6es de a communaut6»   et
                d'« esprit de communion» au centre de son projet. Ce choix editorial est en
                resonance avec l'aspiration communautaire qui se constate dans la culture
                populaire de meme   qu'avec l'interet croissant de la culture savante pour
                l'interdisciplinarit, voire la transdisciplinarit. Ces sensibilit s culturelles
                peuvent se comprendre  comme  des reactions dialectiques a la fatigue exis-
                tentielle et a l'ennui intellectuel causes par l'avanc e dans l'hypermodernit
                sociale, juridique et scientifique. Les chercheurs droit et societ6 » ont eux-
                memes   contribu6 a la modernisation du  droit et a l'engagement de la
                science juridique dans la voie de l'expertise technique. La critique actuelle
                de la modernite les invite desormais a concevoir le droit dans une optique
                communautaire   et conviviale, en communion d'esprit avec tous les intellec-
                tuels qui r fl chissent aux problemes contemporains de la normativit.

*  Summary      Ubi communitas,  ibi ius?
                The new  academic journal Communitas  places ideas of community and the
                spirit of communion at the centre of its focus. This editorial line resonates
                both with the community aspirations that can be seen in popular culture and
                the growing scholarly interest in interdisciplinarity and crossdisciplinarity
                that can be seen in academic culture. This cultural interest in community
                can be  understood as a rational response to the existential fatigue and
                intellectual boredom caused by social, legal and scientific hypermodernity.
                Yet law and society researchers themselves have contributed to the mod-
                ernization of the law and to the commitment of legal science to technical
                expertise. The current critique of modernity now invites these researchers,
                and all who reflect on contemporary issues of normativity, to conceive of
                the law from a perspective of community and neighbourly relations.
