Change In English Law And Halacha

Sir Bernard Eder; Rabbi Chaim Weiner

In a far-reaching discussion with two leading voices from the respective worlds of both the English judiciary and The Rabbinate our panel ask: From where may we derive legal change? How is law interpreted and developed? What room and on what basis is there opportunity for adaptation and innovation? How do we protect social stability and yet provide for continuity? What if any are the synergies between the two legal disciplines and what can they learn from each other?
