While this article does not pretend to be the product of empirical and field country studies, it will try to bring to light some of the values and premises underlying both global and domestic reform policies, and examine other sometimes unstated but nevertheless relevant factors that affect both the articulation and implementation of reform goals, including the links between global and domestic actors and forces on these processes of legal reform. ...

The dynamic relationship between these two modes substantially affects the shape and content of current legal reform programs. |
