Description
The 50th volume of the "Current Legal Problems" series contains the now customary selection of essays by a group of scholars. To celebrate the golden anniversary of the work, contributors were each asked to take stock of developments in their particular area of expertise over the past 50 years, and to give a critical analysis of where the law now stands. It therefore contains a broad-ranging set of contributions. From this volume onwards the "Annual Review" and the "Collected Papers" will appear together in one hardback and one paperback volume.
