Comparative Law, entitled 'National Legal Traditions and their Historical Background'. The general rapporteur sought particularly to explore just how accurate the notion of national legal systems is, as well as the extent to which domestic law is based on national or non-national legal traditions which have been successfully transmitted and which may regenerate themselves through conversion of contemporary practice of the traditions into ongoing normative information. In accordance with the general rapporteur's wishes, we have focused on those sources and traditions to which Belgian law seems to have been receptive.
