The study of the objects of comparative analysis (what to compare) begins with a critique of legal positivism to address a plurality of legal concepts. The investigation of the aims of comparative law (why compare) considers the most widespread classifications of legal orders and the diverse approaches to the study of legal change. Finally, the methods of comparative law (how to compare) are analysed, taking into account their different functions. Adopting a contextualised, interdisciplinary approach to the subject with a focus on a range of different legal systems, the author brings in examples from politics and economics to the analysis, highlighting the importance of comparative law for the understanding of modern societies.
Comparative Law: A Critical Introduction will provide a thought-provoking read for advanced-level students and scholars of comparative law.
