A Question of Traditions

In my opinion a deep comprehension of the strategic potentialiaty of "comparative law" - as a discipline, but much more as an intellectual device - requires the mutual and interreleted inquiry on legal traditions and geopolitics traditions.

For a research on geopolitical traditions I suggest D. Atkinson, K. Dodds, Geopolitical Traditions. Critical Histories of a Century of Geopolitical Thought, Routledge, 2000
