Charting the divide between common and civil law

Lundmark, Thomas

What does it mean when civil lawyers and common lawyers think differently? This book provides an introduction to the uses, purposes, and approaches to studying civil and common law in a comparative legal framework. The book covers the jurisdictions of Germany, Sweden, England and Wales, and the United States, and includes a discussion of each country's legal issues, structure, and their general rules. The author explores the discipline of comparative legal studies, rectifying many of the misconceptions and prejudices that cloud our understanding of the divide between the common law and civil law traditions.
