Comparative law

‘A delightful and fresh approach to the comparative study of law.' (Jans Smits, Maastricht University, the Netherlands) (of the first edition).

This textbook presents a clear and thought-provoking introduction to the study of comparative law.

The book provides students with in-depth analyses of the major global comparative methodologies and theories. Written in a lively style, it leads the student through debates in comparative legal scholarship, both in the Western world and in the lesser studied jurisdictions, beyond Europe and North America.

The second edition includes a revised structure to help the student understand the subject, an updated introductory chapter, and new material on legal transplants and globalisation. It also explores allied disciplines, including linguistics, history, and post-colonial studies giving students full context of the subject.
