Università Roma Tre

The course cuts across traditional divisions between public law and private law, between substantive law and procedural law, and between the so-called civil law/common law divide. The course is focused on the Western Legal Tradition and explains the pitfalls of comparisons with non-Western systems.

The following two texts are adopted for the course:

1) Vincenzo Zeno-Zencovich, "Comparative Legal Systems. A Short and Illustrated Introduction", Roma TrEpress, 2021.
