Wrongful Enrichment
Hart Publishing (Verlag)
978-1-5099-3515-4 (ISBN)
The book argues that we should understand law as a mimetic artefact. In so doing, it explains how typical patterns and exemplary articulations of wrongful enrichment law capture and reiterate vocal cultural themes found in the respective regions. The book identifies remarkable affinities between poetic tendencies, structures and default dispositions of wrongful enrichment law and cultural world views. It offers bold accounts of each region’s law and culture providing fertile grounds for external and comparative elucidations of the legal doctrine.
Nahel Asfour has lectured on Private Law and Culture, Property and Restitution Law Theory at the University of Vienna, and currently lectures on Remedies Law at Tel-Aviv University as teaching fellow. He also practices law in Nazareth, Israel.
