This introduction provides an authoritative description of the major elements of the Belgian legal system: it identifies the basic legal sources, institutions and concepts, it offers a systematic and critical description of the principal branches of the law and it provides the necessary historical background. Each of the 16 chapters is concluded with a selected bibliography.
The book is written for a diversified, primarily non-Belgian readership including practising lawyers, business people, government officials, researchers, and students interested in a reliable overview of Belgian law and institution.
