The work addresses comparative law as an academic discipline, outlining its risks such as superficiality and misreading foreign law, while emphasizing its virtues through systematic study of relationships among legal systems. It develops the paradox of widespread yet uneven legal transplantation, using Roman and post-Roman examples to explain reception, authority, and rule effects across multiple countries.","cbCaiavVDeT0rYLF","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiavVDeT0rYLF","pdf",8720177,1,139,"English","en","# Preface\n# Comparative Law as an Academic Discipline\n# The Perils of Comparative Law\n# The Virtues of Comparative Law\n# Introduction to Legal Transplants\n# Romans and Roman Law in Roman Egypt\n# Roman Systematics in Scotland\n# The Reception of Roman Law in Scotland\n# Meaning and Authority\n# The Early Law of the Massachusetts Bay Colony\n# English Law in New Zealand\n# Lex Aquilia: Reception and Non-Reception\n# Transfer of Ownership, Risk, and Sale\n# Authority Again\n# Some General Reflections\n# Comparative Law and Legal History","[{\"question\":\"What makes comparative law more than simply comparing one foreign system to another?\",\"answer\":\"The text frames comparative law as the study of relationships between systems, not merely a method of study or an account of separate legal systems.
