This text explores the ways in which various legal systems are
mixed or mixing jurisdictions. The contributors are experts in the
jurisdictions on which they write and have direct experience of
living and working within that jurisdiction. The classical frame of
reference for the analysis of mixed jurisdictions uses the concept
of "legal families" as its base. The problem of this approach is
its reliance on a notion of mixed jurisdictions which sees them as
arising at the point of contact between various legal traditions.
This work argues that even the classical examples of mixed
jurisdictions, such as Quebec, Australia, the European Community
and the Basque Country, no longer seem to fit the mould and that a
new framework is called for, or at least a more "fuzzy" approach to
the theory of mixed jurisdictions. The final chapter offers some
original ideas on what an alternative framework might include.
