Law crosses borders and comparative legal information has entered permanently into legal life. There are numerous problems, thus, which acquiring reliable comparative legal knowledge can entail. In this paper it is suggested that to be practically useful as well as intellectually valuable comparative law has to compare more than just rules. Understanding specific legal rules presupposes a conception of what law is in that particular legal system. Each legal system should be considered from the perspective of its normative, conceptual and methodological elements and one should shake off subjective perspectives concerning systematic structures of legal institutions and rules. This scope makes the study of comparative law particularly engaging as well as challenging.
