Meridian 180:Translation and New Form of Comparative Law
To the extent comparative law, at least in its basic form, entails comparison of one legal system with another, the importance of translation as part of its process is undeniable.After all, ”to compare means to observe and to explain similarities as well as differences”3 and that comparative process is impossible without ”assessing the meaning of the words and concepts that comprise the respective laws.”4 However, it has become increasingly clear that a formalistic textual translation of the rules is insufficient to facilitate the comparative process because law and its interpretation and use are driven by multiple factors that could not be explained by language alone.
