European lawyers tend to have a hard time with United States Law at first. Too different are "both" systems, it seems. But is the Anglo-American legal order really that different?
The fifth main episode of Maastricht Law Talk leaves the European continent for a while: It covers the United States legal system. From a federal judge being able to block the president's executive orders to the harmonisation process of law.
Larry Catá Backer is Professor of Law and International Affairs at Penn State University.

If you haven't yet listened to our episode on constitutions, you might want to do that first.
