Understanding the fundamental or constitutional nature of a procedure is crucial in designing civil procedure. This book delves into the intricate realm of procedural due process, drawing from comparative law and empirical methodologies. It offers a comprehensive analysis of how this essential human right is understood in national jurisdictions and international human rights law.

The book proposes a suitable due process theory for civil matters, assessing the diverse roles of this fundamental international human right in comparison to criminal justice.

Moreover, the theory addresses the critical question of what the fundamental requirements are concerning the right to a fair trial in civil matters. It explores the balance between ensuring procedural fairness and meeting social demands for justice.

This book makes a significant contribution to the fields of civil justice, legal design, and access to justice.

The book's insights into comparative law and empirical methodologies offer valuable perspectives on legal theory and practice.
