This book is a collection of essays presented at the international conference "The Administration of Justice - Past Experience and Challenges for the Future", held in May 2015 in Cavtat, Croatia, in honour of Mirjan Damaska, Sterling Professor of Law at Yale Law School. Twenty-six contributors re-examine from different angles in an original, profound and insightful way all three key areas of his seminal and path-breaking monumental scholarship. The papers cover comparative and foreign procedure, the law of evidence and international criminal law, revealing the depth, richness and far-reaching nature of Damaska's opus.
