The 14 essays that make up this 2003 volume are written by leading international scholars to provide an authoritative survey of the state of comparative legal studies. Representing such varied disciplines as the law, political science, sociology, history and anthropology, the contributors review the intellectual traditions that have evolved within the discipline of comparative legal studies, explore the strengths and failings of the various methodologies that comparatists adopt and, significantly, explore the directions that the subject is likely to take in the future. No previous work had examined so comprehensively the philosophical and methodological foundations of comparative law. This is quite simply a book with which anyone embarking on comparative legal studies will have to engage.

[2nd ed.] Comparative Tax Law, now presented in an updated new edition, focuses on the essential patterns of tax law in different jurisdictions across the globe. Although the details of tax law are literally endless—differing not only from jurisdiction to jurisdiction but also from day-to-day changes in the working of the system—structures and patterns exist across tax systems that can be understood with relative ease. Considering the dynamic nature of tax law, whose rate of change exceeds that of any other field of law, the author’s clear identification of the fundamental structures and also the underlying patterns that all tax systems have in common—as well as where the differences lie—guides the reader and offers resources for further research

The frontier between 'law' and 'politics' is not always clear-cut. A large area exists where courts operate, but where governments and parliaments also make decisions. Tim Koopmans compares the way American, British, French and German law and politics deal with different issues: in many instances subjects which are highly 'political' in one country constitute legal issues in another. Is there, for example a 'sovereign Parliament' (as there is in Britain), or will courts control the compatibility of statutes with the Constitution (as in the United States and Germany)? How far can courts go in controlling the legality of administrative action? Are there general legal theories about the frontier between what courts and what politics can do? Koopmans considers case law on a range of issues, including human rights protection, federalism, separation of powers, equal protection and the impact of European and international law.
