Comparative law is the study of differences and similarities between the law of different countries.

Comparative law is an academic study of separate legal systems, each one analysed in its constitutive elements ; how they differ in the different legal systems, and how their elements combine into a system.

Comparative civil law studies, for instance, show how the law of private relations is organised, interpreted and used in different systems or countries.

Comparative law is a very important discipline in communication between legal systems.

Comparative law is different from the fields of general jurisprudence ( legal theory ), international law, including both public international law and private international law ( also known as conflict of laws ).

Comparative law would be applicable to private international law when developing an approach to interpretation in a conflicts analysis.

Comparative law may contribute to legal theory by creating categories and concepts of general application.

Comparative law may also provide insights into the question of legal transplants, i. e. the transplanting of law and legal institutions from one system to another.
