This second edition provides a wide-ranging and highly diverse survey, as well as a critical assessment of, comparative law at the beginning of the 21st century. In the current era of globalisation, this discipline is more relevant than ever, both on an academic and practical level. The book contains forty-eight essays, each of which provides an accessible, original, and critical account of comparative law in its respective area. Each essay also includes a short bibliography referencing the definitive works in the field. Three sections divide the essays into the development of comparative law, the major approaches to comparative law, and the status of such studies over a range of subject areas.
