The series is very much in the spirit of Juris Diversitas and monograph proposals are being sought:
Studies in Comparative Law and Legal Culture
Series Editor: Vernon Valentine Palmer, Tulane University, US
In today’s shrinking world it is important to extend our horizons and increase our knowledge of other people’s laws. This series aims to publish in-depth monographs covering various aspects of private and public law in diverse legal traditions. It additionally seeks to encourage improved techniques and methods of comparative legal research, for instance, through the increasing use of interdisciplinary studies in sociology, anthropology and economics. Individual volumes may deal with the law and culture not merely of the well-known and frequently studied countries but also with the lesser-known mixed, religious, and plural systems of the world. Regional studies are also within its purview. The focus may range from important aspects of legal history, culture, and institutions to local experience and evolving legal trends.Please email Tara Gorvine at tgorvine@e-elgar.com to discuss a book project or for further information.
