The empirical study of law, legal systems and legal institutions is
widely viewed as one of the most exciting and important
intellectual developments in the modern history of legal research.
Motivated by a conviction that legal phenomena can and should be
understood not only in normative terms but also as social practices
of political, economic and ethical significance, empirical legal
researchers have used quantitative and qualitative methods to
illuminate many aspects of law's meaning, operation and impact.
In the 43 chapters of The Oxford Handbook of Empirical Legal
Research leading scholars provide accessible and original
discussions of the history, aims and methods of empirical research
about law, as well as its achievements and potential. The Handbook
has three parts. The first deals with the development and
institutional context of empirical legal research. The second - and
largest - part consists of critical accounts of empirical research
on many aspects of the legal world - on criminal law, civil law,
public law, regulatory law and international law; on lawyers,
judicial institutions, legal procedures and evidence; and on legal
pluralism and the public understanding of law. The third part
introduces readers to the methods of empirical research, and its
place in the law school curriculum.
