Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Thesis / Dissertation Description
This thesis compares the evolution of law theory in the United States and France, focusing the notions of functionalism and conceptualism respectively. There is an emphasis on the independent development of both approaches originating from a need to resolve issues pertaining to conflicting law problems and societal needs. The thesis also highlights that the continual practice of both theories is not independent and summarizes the notion that “functionalism can be an answer where conceptualism fails to provide a solution” to establish that comparing the impact of functionalism as a new choice of law process to determine the law governing international contracts is useful.
