Paperback. What does doing comparative law involve? Too often, explicit methodological discussions in comparative law remain limited to the level of pure theory, neglecting to test out critiques and recommendations on concrete issues. This book bridges this gap between theory and practice in comparative legal studies. Essays by both established and younger comparative lawyers reflect on the methodological challenges arising in their own work and in work in their area. Taken together, they offer clear recommendations for, and critical reflection on, a wide range of innovative comparative research projects. Questions of research methodology enjoy a new-found prominence in comparative legal scholarship. But a large gap often remains between the theory and the practice of comparative legal research. This book addresses this gap head-on, providing clear recommendations for, and critical reflection on, a range of innovative comparative research projects. This item is printed on demand.
