What does the future hold for comparative law and what challenges lie ahead? The contributions in this volume, delivered at a symposium marking Hein Kötz's 80th birthday cover a breadth of topics and methods befitting of a man who maintains that no one single point of view can hold all the answers in a complex world. The work poses the challenging question of just what can and should be meaningfully compared when drawing from the conflict of laws, property law, commercial law, tort law, comparative law in a post-secular society, the comparison of legal systems, competition between regulatory models and combining doctrinal and non-doctrinal approaches. Hein Kötz himself pleads for calm in the face of these myriad approaches and warns against succumbing to the allure of a single cure-all solution.
