Position und Aufgaben des Richters nach westlichem und nach islamischem Recht

This volume contains the expanded articles written by a group of specialists in comparative legal history, oriental law and ethnological legal research who dealt with various aspects of the position and the function of the judge in Western and Islamic law during the 30th conference for comparative law in Würzburg in 2005. In both legal systems, the main issue is basically the just judge. Attempts to guarantee that justice is done by a judge can be made in various ways and can complement each other, such as for example through a selection according to general knowledge and honesty, preordained professional careers or rules of procedure for the trial.Heinrich Scholler: Einführung - Ulrike Müßig: Die Funktion des Richters aus der Sicht der europäischen Rechtsordnungen.
