    Edición de Mauro Bussani, Ugo Mattei ...
    Series series Cambridge Companions to Law
    We can only claim to understand another legal system when we know the context surrounding the positive law in which lawyers are trained.

It is only when we ... Leer más

    de Onora O'Neill ...
    This collection of essays brings together the central lines of thought in Onora O'Neill's work on Kant's philosophy, developed over many years.
