6 The Danish national legal bibliographies include legal materials on the Faeroe Islands and on Greenland. Both are considered as integrated parte of Denmark, but their legal systems differ somewhat from the Danish due to extensive home rule. Much of this material has been brought together in Chapter 8, (1) and (2), in Dansk Juridisk Bibliogiafi.Google Scholar

10 Similarly, the names of the old chapters or parts and their abbreviations are still used as the names and abbreviations for important contemporary statutes, even though Swedish law cannot be considered as codified in the sense that this word is used in France or Germany, but perhaps in the sense that it is used in California. For instance, the rather progressive Swedish criminal code is still called the Chapter or Part on Crimes (Brottsbalken) in Sweden, and it is universally abbreviated as Br. or Brb.Google Scholar
