Recenzje

The study is a masterfully documented analysis of a legal system-and a legal tradition-that is unknown and barely studied. Consequently, this study is particularly relevant and necessary in our globalised world which is characterized by the transnational nature of legal mechanisms. The interweaving and hybridization of legal systems calls for an effort to understand the 'other' in its singularity and specificities. The author's reflections are thus a brilliant contribution to the effort to better understand it, and as such deserve to be read and commented on.
