The Cambridge Companion To Comparative Law / Edited By Mauro Bussani And Ugo Mattei, Ugo Mattei, Mauro Bussani

We can only claim to understand another legal system when we know the context surrounding the positive law in which lawyers are trained. To avoid ethnocentricity and superficiality, we must go beyond judicial decisions, doctrinal writings and the black-letter law of codes and statutes and probe the 'deeper structures' where law meets cultural, political, socio-economic factors.

Classification Of Clients Of Financial Firms: From Comparative Law Perspective, Christopher Chao-Hung Chen
Christopher Chao-hung Chen

Lastly, this Article considers what steps can be taken to demonstrate to the Russian government and its people that an independent judiciary is the heart of enforcing the rule of law and establishing a successful country.
