Prof. em. dr. dr. h.c. mult Michael Stolleis (MPI Frankfurt) published Verfassungs- und Verwaltungsgeschichte Materialien, Methodik, Fragestellungen in the Methodica-series of the Max Planck Institute for European Legal History (De Gruyter).

Aims and scope:

The textbook provides a basic introduction to constitutional and administrative history through sources, the research literature, and specific methodological questions. This kind of overview has gained in importance over time as issues previously dealt with at the level of the nation state must now be addressed comparatively at the European level. The textbook also provides a global assessment.

Other volumes (inter alia) on early modern legal spaces (Caspar Ehlers) and criminal justice (Karl Härter).
