Existe-t-il une procédur de codification du droit anglais? - Paris : IIAP, avril/juin 1997
Codification supposes a formalised and orderly system of norms, an idea which remains foreign to English law. The basis of the common law consists of causes of action which give a different content to legal concepts depending of the case in hand. The training od lawyers and the limited role accorded to academic scholarship are serious and long-lastin obstacles to any attempts at codification
