Excerpt from Guide to the Law and Legal Literature of Germany For the legislator the practical value of comparative law appears by an examination of the various ways in which economic and social problems have been dealt with abroad. The recent investigations, by various Federal commissions, of the European solutions of certain economic problems, the researches into foreign social legislation by our national and State legislatures, the investigation of the methods adopted abroad for the legal treatment of crime, all illustrate our gradual emancipation from an insular view of legal institu tions and a recognition of the practical value of profiting from the experiments of others. For the jurist, however, a knowledge of the contributions of continental Europe, and especially of Germany, to legal science, is of still greater importance. Only in recent times have we begun to lose our indifference to the progress of the science of law abroad and to awaken to a realization of its practical importance. Social legislation during the last gen eration and researches into legal history have created a revolution in the concept of law and of its relation to social and political science, from which it springs and to whose development it ministers.
