This important new work seeks to explore that question by analysing key ideas and events in the Western legal tradition, including the Papal Revolution, the Protestant Reformations and the Enlightenment. Addressing the role of law, morality and politics, it looks at the creation of orders which offer the possibility for global harmony, in particular the United Nations and the European Union. It also considers the unification of international commercial laws in the attempt to understand Western law in a time of accelerating cultural interconnections. The title will appeal to scholars of legal history and globalisation as well as students of jurisprudence and all those trying to understand globalisation and the Western dynamic of law and authority.Law in context.LawHistoryLawEuropeHistoryLawPhilosophyHistoryLawInternational unificationGlobalizationLawHistory.LawHistory.LawPhilosophyHistory.LawInternational unification.Globalization.340.52Goldman David B511463MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910511507803321Globalisation and the western legal tradition763253UNINA
