Interpreting Statutes

"Interpreting Statutes: A Comparative Study", is a work for scholars of comparative law and jurisprudence, and for lawyers engaged in EC law or other international forms of practice. It reviews, compares and analyzes the practice of interpretation in nine countries representing Europe (North, South, East and West) and America (USA and Argentina), common law and civil law; it also explores implications for general theories of interpretation and of justification. Its authors and editors Robert S. Summers and Neil MacCormick, constitute an international team of distinction; they have worked on this project for over 7 years.
