Summary
Between the world wars German scholars committed themselves to a search for new methods of engaging with legal history. In addition to this an obvious generational change - almost a rupture - took place among German legal historians. Johannes Liebrecht depicts the characteristics of young legal history and its entanglement with the crisis of historicism between the 1880s and 1930s.
