Philosophy of law

From Wikipedia

Philosophy of law is a branch of philosophy which studies basic questions about law and legal systems, such as "what is the law?", "what does it mean to say something is legal or illegal?", "what is the relationship between law and ethics?".

Basic schools of thought include natural law and legal positivism.
