Legal Culture and Identity in Central and Eastern Europe


Overview

Legal culture has in recent years generated a lively scholarly discourse. This ranges from theoretical attempts to conceptualise and categorise legal cultures, to empirical efforts to measure it. Central and Eastern Europe presents a unique case study: shared experience of empires, of socialism, and a future in the EU, as well as life on the periphery bind the region together. At the same time, we are seeing a resurgence of the concepts of national legal and constitutional identities. These emphasise national characteristics and interests in the face of an ever-closer integration. Appropriately, this volume brings together scholars from different backgrounds to shed light on these issues using a range of different foci and methodologies.
