Law of Obligations

Law of Obligations

Geoffrey Samuel

Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd
2011
nidottu
This comprehensive book presents the English law of contract and tort in the context of a European law of obligations.Law of Obligations provides the reader with an overview of contract and tort as well as an introduction to the law of obligations in the civil (or continental) law tradition. The book is considered an extensive introduction to the western law of obligations, but with an emphasis on English law. Arising out of the analysis of the two legal traditions, Geoffrey Samuel raises questions about the appropriateness of importing the obligations category into the common law. He also highlights what has been termed the ‘harmonisation debate’; should the law of obligations be harmonised at a European – or even international level? The debate raises some fundamental issues not just about legal traditions and about the law of obligations itself, but also about comparative law theory and methodology.Designed with English law students and jurists in mind, this book will be an invaluable tool for researching contract, tort and the law of obligations. It is an original contribution not only to European private law but equally to comparative legal studies.

Epistemology and Method in Law

Epistemology and Method in Law

Geoffrey Samuel

Dartmouth Publishing Co Ltd
2003
sidottu
This book seeks to question the widely held assumption in Europe that to have knowledge of law is simply to have knowledge of rules. There is a knowledge dimension beyond the symbolic which reaches right into the way facts are perceived, constructed and deconstructed. In support of this thesis the book examines, generally, the question of what it is to have knowledge of law; and this examination embraces not just the conceptual foundations, methods, taxonomy and theories used by jurists. It also examines the epistemological schemes used by social scientists in general in order to show that such schemes are closely related to the schemes of intelligibility used by lawyers and judges.

Law of Obligations & Legal Remedies

Law of Obligations & Legal Remedies

Geoffrey Samuel

Routledge Cavendish
2001
nidottu
This book examines the notion of a law of obligations as a conceptual category in itself; and, in doing this, it presents the foundational material in a context that draws on some comparative and theoretical ideas while, at the same time, emphasising the special characteristics of the common law.The book is specifically designed to act as an introduction to the legal research skills of reasoning and method. It also looks at the foundations of civil liability in a way that emphasises the interrelationship of source materials, problem solving and conceptual analysis and justification.

A Critical Approach to Introductions to Law

A Critical Approach to Introductions to Law

Geoffrey Samuel

EDWARD ELGAR PUBLISHING LTD
2026
sidottu
In this highly original book Geoffrey Samuel investigates and reviews introductory books to law, with particular emphasis on those explaining legal reasoning and legal methods. This book assesses the impact of introductions to law in the context of legal education, theory, taxonomy, concepts and institutions. It also explores whether lessons can be learned from the way introductions are framed in other subject areas such as natural science, social science and humanities. The chapters outline the evolution of introductions to law, including a reappraisal of the role of Roman law, and assess how the accepted conception of legal knowledge has changed over time. Adopting a comparative approach, Samuel contrasts introductions to law in the common and civil law fields and evaluates the differences in introductory books across various disciplines, including the natural sciences, social sciences and humanities. Ultimately, the book reveals a tension between the traditional doctrinal analysis and emerging critical and subversive approaches to law. A Critical Approach to Introductions to Law is a crucial resource for students and scholars of law, especially those with a focus on comparative law, legal theory, legal method and legal reasoning. It will particularly benefit those beginning their legal studies and those interested in research methods and teaching.
