R.C. Van Caenegem is the successor of Henri Pirenne and of F.L.
Ganshof at the University of Ghent. These essays reflect Van
Caenegem's main interests over his career: the Common Law in
England and Customary Law in the Low Countries; the differences
between institutional development in England and in the rest of
Europe; and the forces making for autocratic as opposed to
representative government. A number of pieces discuss the nature of
history itself: how it compares with the sciences and what it can
teach us. Two essays commemorate the lives and work of Pirenne and
Ganshof.
