Download or read book Handbook on Legal Cultures written by Sören Koch and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-05-30 with total page 1171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cooperation across borders requires both knowledge of and understanding of different cultures. This is especially true when it comes to the law. This handbook is the first to comprehensively present selected legal cultures based on a very specific set of structural elements which can be found in all such cultures. Legal cultures are a product of and impacted by certain fundamental and commonly shared ideas on and expectations of the law. In all modern societies these ideas are to a certain degree institutionalized or at least embedded in institutionalized practices. These practices determine the way lawyers are educated and apply the law, how they engage with the ongoing internationalization of law and what kind of values they adhere to. Looking at these elements separately enables the reader to identify similarities and differences and to explain them contextually. Understanding these general features of legal cultures can help avoid misunderstandings or misinterpretations of foreign law and its application. Accordingly, this handbook is a necessary starting point for all kinds of legal comparative studies conducted by academics, students, judges and other legal practitioners.

Download or read book The Tapestry of the Law written by E. Attwooll and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1997 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Attmoll takes Scots law as a case study because it is considered to be a hybrid between continental civilian traditions and English common law and so more representative of a broader range of legal systems, and perhaps also because it was easiest to access from her base at the University of Glasgow. She juxtaposes the legal system with a number of theories, most contemporary, of or about law, and produces some tentative conclusions about legal theory rather than endorsing any particular one. Law students are her primary audience, but academics or practitioners of law may also find the account of interest. No subject index. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
