Mixed Jurisdiction And The Scottish Legal Tradition: Reconsidering The Concept Of Mixture, Stephen Thomson
Mixed Jurisdiction And The Scottish Legal Tradition: Reconsidering The Concept Of Mixture, Stephen Thomson
Journal of Civil Law Studies
Scotland is typically regarded as a mixed jurisdiction based on an assessment of its combination of civilian and common law traditions. If this narrow definition of “mixture” is opened up, one will find several other traditions which are constituent parts of the Scottish legal tradition. Those range from the seemingly remote Celtic and udal law, through feudal and canon law, to the law of the European Union and the European Convention on Human Rights.
