Introduction to Comparative Law
Level of study: Bachelor
The course aims at introducing the students the major approaches of ‘traditional’ comparative law, its functions, aims, methods and history. It also intents to survey the main features of the major legal families of the world (civil law, Anglo-American common law, non-Western legal traditions in Asia, Sharia, and mixed jurisdictions), so that the students would have the 'map' of the world’s legal systems. Finally, the course introduces comparative legal studies of today's globalized world with extended methods of ‘postmodern’ comparative law (contextualised approach to legal systems and institutes).
