Reviews

(Lasser) certainly succeeds in showing that French law offers a consistent and valid alternative to the prevalent American legal hegemony. He deals well too with the dynamism of the model, presenting a rounded picture of internal debates surrounding reform...Lasser is always readable; his is indeed the most enjoyable full-length study of comparative law that this reviewer has read for a long time. Carol Harlow, The Modern Law Review


Shattering prevailing stereotypes, this book revolutionizes the study of comparative law. It will serve as a basic reference point for future scholarship. Bruce Ackerman, Sterling Professor of Law and Political Science, Yale University Judicial Deliberations is an ambitious, important, and innovative book, which adds greatly to our understanding of particular legal systems, of the ways in which differing configurations of discourse and institutional practice promote core rule-of-law values, and of comparative methodology itself. Beautifully written and wide-ranging in scope, it is likely to become a classic in the field. Professor Amalia Kessler, Stanford Law School
