Book Review: The Politics of European Legal Research: Behind the Method, Marija Bartl and Jessica C. Lawrence (eds)

The first thing that strikes the reader of The Politics of European Legal Research: Behind the Method is the narrative of the structure. A mere glance at the contents page promises the reader that the discussion will be viewed through four perspectives: the politics of questions, the politics of answers, the politics of audiences, and the politics of the concept of law. Although the reader might be enticed by this grouping and expect an overarching chapter for each perspective, this expectation falls short. Nevertheless, the grouping of the discussion in the aforementioned four focal points and then delivering different perspectives under these focal points is a most welcome contribution to the recent method debates.
