An International Conference in Hannover (December 2019), under the aegis of the well-renowned ELPIS network, discussed the matter through the diversity of legal education within the EU member states, aiming at finding common grounds on the modern teaching of law.The present book achieves a healthy balance of relevant insights by scholars and students. It consists of contributions by scientists of different fields of law.The AuthorsBernd Oppermann (Professor of Civil Law, University of Hannover), Claas Friedrich Germelmann (Professor of European Law, University of Hannover), Vasco Pereira da Silva (Professor of Public Law, University of Lisbon), Francisco Balaguer Callejón (Professor of Public Law, University of Granada), Andreas Schwartze (Professor of Civil Law, University of Innsbruck), Arndt Künnecke (Professor of Public Law, Federal University of Applied Sciences, Brühl), Maria Meng-Papantoni (Professor of European Law, Panteion University of Athens), Patrick R.
