2018br. Alison Riley usa il linguaggio giuridico inglese come strumento per studiare il common law aprendo così la via ad una conoscenza contemporanea del linguaggio giuridico inglese e del sistema giuridico di common law, non limitato, questo, al solo campo del diritto civile, ma esteso anche al diritto pubblico, in genere quindi sia al penale, sia al costituzionale, sia all'internazionale. Il percorso offerto da questo libro non si limita quindi a favorire la conoscenza della lingua giuridica, ma assieme al percorso linguistico, propone anche un percorso giuridico basato sulla tradizione degli ordinamenti di common law, e in particolare, dell'ordinamento inglese: imparare il linguaggio, ma attraverso il linguaggio, approfondire anche gli istituti, le fonti, alcuni concetti e principi base, il metodo di ragionamento del common lawyer e la formazione della regola di origine giurisprudenziale. Il volume è suddiviso in capitoli e lo scopo di ciascun capitolo è di dare informazioni sulle comuni strutture grammaticali che caratterizzano i testi legali, pur offrendo l'opportunità di riflettere ed esercitarsi utilizzando brevi esercizi denominati "tasks" e comprensione globale con Language Focus tasks. I comuni termini grammaticali che si incontrano nei capitoli sono spiegati in un glossario alla fine del manuale. Una Key and Commentary, alla fine di ciascun capitolo, fornisce le risposte agli esercizi e un breve sommario del capitolo.
2018br. «Il volume offre un disegno rigoroso e coerente della circolazione e della struttura del diritto anglo-americano nell'ambito della Tradizione Giuridica Occidentale. L'evoluzione, le caratteristiche più notevoli e le interazioni fra i diversi modelli vengono descritte, analizzate e talvolta giustificate in chiave storica e comparativa mediante un costante raffronto con l'esperienza continentale. Una sequenza di immagini e di riflessioni, di considerazioni e di valutazioni tracciata da uno studioso di civil law che ha un'eccezionale conoscenza del sistema di comnzon law. Ugo Mattei individua nel loro esatto significato problemi che appaiono invisibili o insignificanti per il giurista angloamericano e, nello stesso tempo, propone soluzioni più consapevoli e meditate di quelle, eccessivamente esasperate e approssimative, che ancora oggi dominano la letteratura comparatistica».
2020br. Il volume traccia, in una prospettiva storica, un quadro della disciplina che regola nel Regno Unito il ruolo degli apparati di supporto all'attività del Parlamento di Westminster e delle Assemblee della devolution di Scozia, Galles e Irlanda del Nord. L'analisi si svolge nel contesto di trasformazione dello Stato contemporaneo e di evoluzione del ruolo dei Parlamenti, investiti da delicati problemi di adeguamento rispetto ai nuovi e maggiori compiti derivanti sul piano interno dai processi di disarticolazione territoriale e su quello sovranazionale dal processo di integrazione europea, interrottosi per il Regno Unito a seguito della Brexit. Attraverso l'analisi delle esperienze degli apparati burocratici del Congresso statunitense, del Parlamento canadese e del Parlamento australiano il volume si propone di offrire un contributo integrativo allo studio della burocrazia parlamentare nella prospettiva comparata, svolgendo dei rilievi e traendo alcune conclusioni preliminari circa lo stato dell'istituzionalizzazione della burocrazia parlamentare britannica rispetto a quella di altri ordinamenti appartenenti alla famiglia giuridica di common law. Lo studio dell'apparato tecnico-burocratico dei Parlamenti consente di evidenziare come lo status, le funzioni e le dimensioni degli apparati parlamentari contribuiscano a fornire elementi essenziali alla valutazione del ruolo assunto dalle istituzioni rappresentative e dell'espansione del loro ruolo nelle democrazie contemporanee quale frutto di una serie di elementi convergenti.
