European Family Law Volume II The Changing Concept of ‘Family’ and Challenges for Domestic Family Law
Produktdetaljer
Biografisk notat
Edited by Jens M. Scherpe, Professor of Comparative Law, Aalborg University, Denmark<i>‘The four volumes that make up this monumental project represent the insight and experience of many fine family law scholars. The volumes examine themes, individual countries, and distinct pan-European institutions and developments. Jens Scherpe’s tour de force is to pull all this together in the final remarkable volume. For a non-European like me, it is fascinating to read about harmonisation and diversity, privacy and rights, pluralism and protection. This is a truly wonderful achievement.’</i>
- Bill Atkin, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand,
<i>‘This collection is remarkable for its organisation and presentation of a mass of complex material (including recommendations for further reading) which will not only inform, but stimulate those interested in the development of family law in a multi-national context. It must form an essential part of any library covering modern family law. In providing this, the editor and the team of contributors have done a great service. The frameworks (the EU, the Council of Europe) are complicated and in some respects unique and generate their own problems, and attempts to solve them. Questions about their nature and future, including the place of European family law in the global community, lurk in the shadows.’</i>
- The International Journal of Law, Policy and the Family,
This book, and the others in the set, will serve as an invaluable resource for anyone interested in family law. It will be of particular use to students and scholars of comparative and international family law, as well as family law practitioners.
