Answer: Because it is a reflection of the arbitrariness of one man.
Step-by-step explanation:
That has been a common practice throughout history, especially in the ancient period. One man decided all the important issues in the country, passed laws and created them at his discretion. Seen from today's perspective, such an attitude represents arbitrariness, dictatorship, autocracy and is not acceptable in modern democratic society. Such an attitude of Hammurabi is not acceptable also because his law had many omissions. In this context, the attitude towards women should be mentioned first. We can freely say that Hammurabi's oath is full of chauvinistic elements. Namely, the law itself puts a woman in a subordinate position, as opposed to a man. A woman is marginalized and does not have the same rights as a man. That is why this claim is wrong because no one had the right to point out omissions in the law itself.
