Making a key contribution to the contemporary debate about methods
in European legal research, this comprehensive book looks behind
different methodologies to explore the institutional, disciplinary,
and political conflicts that shape questions of 'method' or
'approach' in European legal scholarship. Offering a new
perspective on the underlying politics of method, it identifies
four core dimensions of methodological struggle in legal research -
the politics of questions, the politics of answers, the politics of
legal audiences, and the politics of the concept of law. Chapters
explore how methodological choices impact the questions legal
scholars ask, the answers they seek, the audiences for and to whom
they speak, and ultimately their understanding of the legal and the
social world. Leading contributors uncover the framing discourses,
institutional inertias, and political pressures that shape research
questions, while assessing the effects of importing social science
methods into legal research, and how audiences of legal research
and education shape our understanding of law. Concluding with a
reflection on the continued, if qualified, relevance of formal
doctrinal methods for European legal research, this
thought-provoking book will be a key resource for students and
scholars of law and politics, research methods and European law.
