Abstract
- The hypothesis is that, at least in Europe, there is a noted convergence between common and civil law legislative drafting extending from conceptual approaches to actual drafting conventions. The comparative analysis of [statutory] interpretation, modern doctrine of precedent, and drafting rules and conventions in the common and civil laws of Europe paint a clear picture approximation and convergence, to the point where the sacred civil versus common law dividing wall is now critically shaken.
