Studies in the Sociology of Law

The objectives of Studies in the Sociology of Law are threefold. First, the series aims to deepen the analysis of the socio-legal problems related to the enlarged European Union and the different paths of its constitutional process and policy. Second, it examines the many facets of legal cultures within and outside the European context in comparative perspective and in an open debate with extra European scholarship. Third, it focuses on the legacy of European legal thought while dealing with the new challenges of contemporary societies. Accordingly, the series adopts a line of enquiry that emphasizes the broader dynamic of legal cultures.
