OMG – German Legal Dogmatics! Whoever listens closely to presentations by German legal scholars at international conferences will inevitably hear someone uttering this quiet but distinct sigh. Is it really that dire for us and our peculiar legal thinking? No: This collection of speeches given abroad proves how much we can still contribute to scholarly collaboration and systematic analyses of fundamental legal questions. The individual topics covered in this book range from a critical reflection of the school of legal dogmatics to general provisions of the pandect system, contract law, tort law, civil procedure, and bankruptcy law.
