Resumen de Crossing legal cultures
Laura Beck Varela (coord.), Pablo Gutiérrez Vega (coord.), Alberto Spinosa (coord.)
Gathering together some 34 contributions, this publication aims from the outset at consolidating the European Yearbook of Young Legal History Series with a demanding scientific threshold. It assumes a challenging approach to the discipline of legal history itself, moving deliberately beyond some of the unspoken red lines of mainstream legal history, as engraved by dominant historiography, tentatively endorsing approaches to the discipline from neighbouring social sciences such as linguistics, international relations theory, ancient history and even Roman law. Hence this project seeks to contribute to a better, not necessarily conflictual understanding of the cross-cultural engendering of the legal practices, mechanisms and norms in Europe.
