This book uses the philosophy of Thomas Kuhn to provide a new
vision of the development of European comparative law that will
challenge and inspire scholars in the field. With the 'empathic'
use of some ideas from Kuhn's theories on the history of science -
paradigm, paradigm-shift, puzzle-solving research and
incommensurability - the book rethinks the modern history of
European comparative law from the late 19th century to the modern
day. It argues that three major paradigms determine modern
comparative law: - historical and comparative jurisprudence, -
droit compare, and - post-World War II comparative law. It
concludes that contemporary methodological trends are not signs of
a paradigm-shift toward a postmodern and culturalist understanding
of comparative law, but that the new approach spreads the idea of
methodological plurality.
