Madrid-Buenos Aires : Marcial Pons, 2010."90-04-20416-4 Includes bibliographical references and index.Roman iurisprudentia as prudentia iuris -- The Anglosaxon precedent -- Continental case law.Case law is a widely studied field, posing a series of questions. The first issue relates to the nature of case law itself, as the term cannot be given a single meaning. There is no one definition of case law, but rather a plurality of meanings depending on the historical period and legal system in question. After an analysis of Roman iurisprudentia and Anglo-Saxon case law, this work considers the Spanish legal system, as an example of a Continental jurisdiction, and distinguishes between the case laws of the Supreme and Constitutional Courts, the European courts, and the Superior Courts of Justice of the Autonomous Communities. The book analyses these issues, among many others, in a clear and in-depth manner, from an historical and comparative approach of great interest and academic value.Judge-made lawLawCasesComparative lawJudge-made law.LawComparative law.340.5Falcón y Tella María José573688Churnin Stephen1549727MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910790221603321Case law in Roman, Anglosaxon and continental law3808006UNINA
