Dear Colleagues:

The Structural Transformation of European Private Law

A Critique of Juridical Hermeneutics

Leone Niglia

 

This book offers a ground-breaking read, both comparative and historical, of the structure and transformation of private law in continental Europe. It reconstructs a hermeneutical praxis that is (it is argued) at the core of private law: the balancing of conflicting interests and normative considerations in 3 key arguments:

- 'balancing' in private law is not merely an analytical process but instead a form of legal argument

- in order to truly understand private law, a bottom-up historical analysis must be adopted

- 'balancing' has always been a comparative process within civil law systems and across the civil-common law divide.

 

Leone Niglia is Professor of Law at the University of Madrid, Spain.
