The author focuses on ways of reformulating the structures used in the Methodical Guidelines which contribute to better comprehension of new Russian legislation in the field of Intellectual Property. The author shows that in this type of legal metatext, when interpreting the intention of the legislator the most common reformulation methods are exemplification, specification, enumeration, extension, precision and definition.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
