It brings together leading scholars who demonstrate that a synthesis of law and development, comparative law and regulatory perspectives (disciplines which to date have remained intellectually isolated from each other) can produce a more nuanced understanding about development failures. Arguing for a refocusing of the analysis onto the social demand for legal transfers, and drawing on empirically rich case studies, contributors explore what recipients in developing countries think about global legal reforms. This analytical focus generates insights into how key actors in developing countries understand global law reforms and how to better predict how legal reforms are likely to play out in recipient countries. 410 0$aCambridge studies in law and society. 517 3 $aLaw & Development & the Global Discourses of Legal Transfers 606 $aLaw and economic development 615 0$aLaw and economic development. 676 $a340/.3091724 686 $aLAW016000$2bisacsh 702 $aGillespie$b John$g(John Stanley), 702 $aNicholson$b Penelope 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910790345803321 996 $aLaw and development and the global discourses of legal transfers$93695538 997 $aUNINA
