"...the law cannot be reduced to the fact. Sadly, and in order to become more effective, but also in order to maintain a certain form of legitimacy, there is a tendency in law to rely on facts such as they are given, for instance, by economists, etc. It is becoming very difficult for law to keep its singular modes of enunciation and verification: the juridical regime of truth has nothing to do with the algorithmic or statistical regime of truth, or even the regime of truth in physics or in economics."
