Description and Table of Contents

Description

This is the most comprehensive general English language textbook on the French legal system and substantive law of France. The text is comparative in its approach to institutions and principles in English and French law and concentrates on the 'law in action'. Unlike existing texts, it combines an introduction to the French legal system and constitutional law with a treatment of specific legal topics. Where appropriate, the author uses analysis to highlight those points which make the French system very different from that of the English system. This text will be ideal for students on LLB courses in languages and law or LLB comparative law options. The book does not make excessive use of French language materials and is therefore directly accessible to readers with little or no knowledge of the French language or legal system.
