This book explores a range of comparative issues in, and in the relationship between, property law and contract law in English and Spanish law. It also draws on other jurisdictions. The purpose is to give readers access to discussions of these areas of private law that are not easily accessible elsewhere. It goes further, however, than simply setting out similarities and differences: it provides an insightful analysis of key points of interest in the comparison of the legal systems discussed.

The Comparison: In Which Mock Reform, Half Reform, And Constitutional Reform, Are Considered is a book written by John Cartwright in 1810. The book is a critical analysis of the various forms of political reform that were being proposed and debated during the time. Cartwright examines three specific types of reform: mock reform, half reform, and constitutional reform. Mock reform refers to superficial changes that do not address the root causes of political corruption and inequality. Half reform refers to partial changes that do not go far enough in addressing the problems. Constitutional reform, on the other hand, refers to comprehensive changes to the political system that would address the underlying issues and create a more just and equitable society. Throughout the book, Cartwright argues that constitutional reform is the only viable option for achieving true political change. He provides historical examples of successful constitutional reforms, such as the Magna Carta and the English Bill of Rights, and argues that similar reforms are needed in the present day. The Comparison is an important historical document that sheds light on the political debates of the early 19th century. It is also a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of political reform and the challenges of creating a just and equitable society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Cartwright argues that the current political system is corrupt and in need of significant reform, and he offers suggestions for how this can be achieved.
