  • Comparative Civil Procedure
    R. L. R. Comparative Civil Procedure Peter GOTTWALD* I. General functions and aims of comparative law The comparison of legal systems is a special method within jurisprudence. With regard to its important functions it is world-wide also regarded as a separate branch of jurisprudence.1) There is no branch of science which may base its knowledge only on ideas and ndings being born within national boundaries. This is particularly true within our modern world of globalisation. Comparative law then leads not only to a better knowledge of foreign law but is also corresponding to the internationalisation of law and jurisprudence and the globalisation of politics, of trade, commerce and private life style. Jurisprudence is not just the science of interpreting national laws, statutes, legal principles, rules and standards. It should comprise the search for models of preventing and solving social con icts within a world-wide society. In looking what has been done beyond the own borders comparative law offers incentives and a broader scope of models of solving a problem that could be and have been developed within national boundaries. Lawyers of all legal systems of the world are by far more imaginative than one lawyer could think up within his short life. Comparative law thus may be an ecoledeverite, enrich the stock of possible solutions , and moreover offer the chance to nd better solutions for the particular time and the particular country than by restricting to local or national doctrinal disputes. If you take this earnestly, comparative law is an exciting intellectual adventure, calling for a maximum of phantasy and of discipline.

  • Legal Harmonisation from the Perspective of the Economic Analysis of Law
    Legal Harmonisation from the PerspectiVe of the Economic Analysis of LaW M ICHAEL G. F AURE * I. Introduction In this paper, I address the potential contribution of the economic analysis of laW to the debate concerning the need for the harmonisation of private laW in Europe. The focus of this paper will indeed mainly be on this harmonisation issue. Indeed, one WaY in which an economic analysis can be useful for the studY of European integration is that economics has focused a lot of attention on the division of competences within federal systems. This is a topic which, from a European legal perspectiVe, is obviouslY releVant to the subsidiarity principle. From an economic perspectiVe, the question which is addressed in the economics of federalism is what the optimal leVel would be for speci fi c types of regulation. In this paper, I argue that this literature is highlY useful also for addressing the harmonisation debate with respect to private law. In the paper, I address the desirabilitY of the harmonisation of private laW from an economic angle. Economists haVe indeed paid much attention to the po- tential goals, functions and economic effects of a harmonisation of laW 1 . * Institute for Transnational Legal Research (METRO), Maastricht, and Rotterdam Insti- tute for LaW and Economics (RKE), Rotterdam, The Netherlands. 1 This paper builds on earlier research in which harmonisation efforts Were analysed from an economic angle with respect to environmental laW (Michael F AURE , Harmonization of Environmental LaW and Market Integration:

  • HARMONISATION and the UNITED NATIONS CONVENTION on CONTRACTS for the INTERNATIONAL SALE of GOODS by Troy Keily1
    HARMONISATION AND THE UNITED NATIONS CONVENTION ON CONTRACTS FOR THE INTERNATIONAL SALE OF GOODS by Troy Keily1 Nordic Journal of Commercial Law issue 2003 #1 1 Troy Keily is an Australian lawyer. He holds a Bachelor of Arts & Bachelor of Laws (Honours) degree from Deakin University. This paper was completed as part of a Masters degree in Public & International Trade Law at The University of Melbourne. Nordic Journal of Commercial Law, issue 2003 #1 1. INTRODUCTION After many years of negotiation, the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (“CISG”) came into force in 1988. Today, 62 states have adopted the CISG. Together these countries account for over two-thirds of all world trade.2 On this basis alone, the CISG is an outstanding success in the legal harmonisation of the law governing the international sale of goods. However, the CISG has its critics and much comment has been made on the failure of the CISG to achieve its goal of promoting international trade through a body of uniform rules. The primary motivation driving the push for a harmonised law on the international sale of goods is economic: a harmonised law makes it easier and more efficient for the business person to sell and buy goods across state borders. However, the engine driving the push for harmonisation is political and cultural; and the task of creating the harmonised law belongs to the diplomat.3 A study of the CISG demonstrates that the political and cultural demands on the diplomat also act as shackles that restrain the achievement of a harmonised law.

  • International Law in Antiquity
    This page intentionally left blank International Law in Antiquity This study of the origins of international law combines techniques of intellectual history and historiography to investigate the earliest developments of the law of nations. The book examines the sources, processes, and doctrines of international legal obligation in antiquity to reevaluate the critical attributes of international law. David J. Bederman focuses on three essential areas in which law influenced ancient State relations – diplomacy, treaty-making, and warfare – in a detailed analysis of international relations in the Near East (2800–700 BCE), the Greek city-States (500–338 BCE), and Rome (358–168 BCE). Containing up-to-date literature and archeological evidence, this study does not merely catalogue instances of recognition by ancient States of these seminal features of international law: it accounts for recurrent patterns of thinking and practice. This comprehensive analysis of international law and State relations in ancient times provides a fascinating study for lawyers and academics, ancient historians and classicists alike. david j. bederman is Professor of Law at Emory University’s School of Law in Atlanta, Georgia. His previous publications cover such diverse subjects as international legal theory and history, the law of the sea and international environment, the law of State responsibility and international claims, US constitutional law of foreign relations, and maritime law. cambridge studies in international and comparative law This series (established in 1946 by Professors Gutteridge, Hersch Lauterpacht and McNair) is a forum for high quality studies in the fields of public and private international and comparative law. Although these are distinct sub-disciplines, developments since 1946 confirm their interrelationship.

  • Europeanisation Effects in the Court Jurisprudence
    ICLR, 2019, Vol. 19, No. 1. Europeanisation effects in the court jurisprudence Katalin Gombos1* National University of Public Service, Busapest [email protected] GOMBOS, Katalin. Europeanisation effects in the court jurisprudence.Inter - national and Comparative Law Review, 2019, vol. 19, no. 1, pp. 261–275. DOI: 10.2478/iclr-2018-0059 Summary: Nowadays, the notion of Europeanisation, which has formerly been used as a description for multi-level governance, prevails also in the area of law. Legal Euro- peanisation is a process that appears in the interactions of legal systems of the Member States between one another, as well as between European law and the laws of the Mem- ber States. Its main area is the appearance of European legal elements in the legal prac- tice of Member States. At some point, the court practice of Member States may affect European law, as well. Due to the occurrence of comparative law elements, interactions can be observed between courts in the EU. According to our basic premise, the interac- tions can be best observed through the practice of different courts. This article aims to prove this premise by establishing different guiding principles through further Hungar- ian court decisions in the field of civil law. Keywords: Legal Europeanisation, interactions of jurisprudence, comparative law meth- ods, interpretation, doctrine of legal interpretation, the impact of autonomous dogmas, principle of the obligation of interpretation, living European law, Hungarian case law 1 Introduction The European Union and its Member States also have their own legal systems. Court of Justice of the European Union (hereinafter as: CJEU) has an exclusive right to interpret European law.
