Rezensionen

'Comparing Legal Cultures is a welcome contribution to the debate on how to analyse legal systems...there is food for thought and a range of potential answers among the more thought-provoking pieces which dominate this work.' International and Comparative Law Quarterly '...the collection has a little bit of something for everyone. I would highly recommend this book to anyone conducting comparative judicial or political studies.'
