A more thorough explanation:

JUS POSITIVUM

Jus positivum is another term for positive law. It refers to the laws that are created and enforced by a government or other authority, rather than laws that are based on natural or moral principles.

Examples of jus positivum include traffic laws, tax laws, and criminal laws. These laws are created by governments and enforced through the legal system. They are not based on any inherent moral or natural principles, but rather on the authority of the government.

For instance, traffic laws are created to ensure the safety of drivers and pedestrians on the road. Tax laws are created to ensure that individuals and businesses pay their fair share of taxes to support government programs. Criminal laws are created to deter and punish criminal behavior.

These examples illustrate the concept of jus positivum because they are laws that are created and enforced by a government or other authority, rather than being based on any inherent moral or natural principles.
