Comparative reasoning


It can be very useful to take a look to the approach endorsed by the legislators of other States or by foreign courts to similar legal questions/problems. This technique can thus offer a solution adopted by another national judge when confronted with the application of the same EU legal provision or ECHR, or when the State acts within the margin of appreciation/discretion. The national judge who wants to engage in comparative reasoning will have to 1) choose a foreign decision that might be helpful to decide their own cases; 2) adapt the solution experimented in another context to their own legal orders.
