Biographical note
D. Neil MacCormick, Regius Professor of Public Law and the Law of Nature and Nations, University of Edinburgh, Scotland, UK and Robert S. Summers, McRoberts Research Professor of Law, Cornell University, New York, USA’The book will be a storehouse of information about the legal cultures of the countries. The editors are to be congratulated on organising the transnational effort to impose order on a disorderly subject (or non-subject).’ The International and Comparative Law Quarterly ’The comparative methods used in the book both in structuring the national reports and in offering a comparative analysis, are highly praiseworthy.’ Professor Dr U Drobnig, Max-Planck-Institut, Germany
This book is a work of outstanding importance for scholars of comparative law and jurisprudence and for lawyers engaged in EC law or other international forms of practice. It reviews, compares and analyses the practice of interpretation in nine countries representing Europe as well as the US and Argentina in common and civil law; it also explores implications for general theories of interpretation and of justification. Its authors, who include Aulis Aarnio, Robert Alexy, Ralf Dreier, Enrique Zuleta-Puceiro, Michel Troper, Christophe Grzegorczyk, Jean-Louis Gardes, Enrico Pattaro, Michele Taruffo, Massimo La Torre, Jerry Wroblewski, Alexsander Peczenik, Gunnar Bergholtz and Zenon Bankowski, as well as editors Robert S. Summers and D. Neil MacCormick, constitute an international team of great distinction; they have worked on this project for over seven years.
