Oxford University Press - Anti - Discrimination Law In Civil Law Jurisdictions - Hardcover

Binding: Hardcover
Description: This collection of essays explores the evolution of anti - discrimination law in European civil law jurisdictions. Historically scholarship in this area has focused on the common law which has also taken the lead in developing the theory and practice of anti - discrimination law. This volume breaks new ground by offering a sustained critical legal and socio - legal comparative look at how anti - discrimination is faring in European civil law environments. While it is true that anti - discrimination law is seen as a foreign transplant in some regions it does not fare poorly across the board. As shown by the case studies herein the success of anti - discrimination law is found to vary according to its national context the actors involved and the evolution of the particular concept or ground of discrimination in question.
