- More about The Politics of European Legal Research: Behind the Method
This book examines the institutional, disciplinary, and political conflicts that shape questions of 'method or 'approach in European legal scholarship, offering a new perspective on the underlying politics of method. It identifies four core dimensions of methodological struggle: the politics of questions, the politics of answers, the politics of legal audiences, and the politics of the concept of law. Chapters explore how methodological choices impact the questions legal scholars ask, the answers they seek, the audiences for and to whom they speak, and ultimately their understanding of the legal and social world.

This comprehensive book makes a significant contribution to the ongoing debate about methodologies in European legal research. By delving behind various approaches, it uncovers the institutional, disciplinary, and political conflicts that shape the questions of 'method' or 'approach' in European legal scholarship. Offering a fresh perspective on the underlying politics of method, the book identifies four core dimensions of methodological struggle: the politics of questions, the politics of answers, the politics of legal audiences, and the politics of the concept of law.
The chapters explore how methodological choices influence the questions legal scholars ask, the answers they seek, the audiences for and to whom they speak, and ultimately their understanding of the legal and social world. Leading contributors unveil the framing discourses, institutional inertias, and political pressures that shape research questions, while assessing the effects of importing social science methods into legal research and how audiences of legal research and education shape our understanding of law.
Concluding with a reflection on the continued, if qualified, relevance of formal doctrinal methods for European legal research, this thought-provoking book serves as a valuable resource for students and scholars of law and politics, research methods, and European law.
