Always on the Same Path - Volume II
By
Basil Markesinis,
Description
Following the
successful publication of his first volume of essays in Foreign Law
and Comparative Methodology Professor Markesinis continues his quest
for the best way of presenting foreign law to Common law readers.
This second volume thus contains essays on methodology: the
horizontal application of human rights; the tortious liability of
statutory bodies; the growing impact of human rights law on our law
of torts; the differing approaches to problems raised by actions for
wrongful life and wrongful birth; differing judicial styles and what
they can tell us about a foreign system,as well as the growing use of
foreign law by British judges in their judicial and extra judicial
work. These essays, along with their rich bibliographical references,
will provide much food for thought to practitioners in these
above-mentioned areas of the law as well as teachers and researchers
in the fields of public law, foreign law and legal methodology.
Sir Basil
Markesinis,QC, LL.D. (Cantab.) DCL (Oxon) D. Iur h.c. (Ghent, Paris I
(Sorbonne) and Munich), is Professor of Common and Civil Law at
University College London and Jamail Regents Chair at the University
