Ginsburg's method is a free-for-all for the views of whoever happens to be sitting on the bench. Maybe you'd like to define for us the criteria for which foreign law to include, beyond "I just like it!" Mark Steyn ably points out, "By 'listening to others,' Justice Ginsburg means, in effect, Europe, Canada and one or two other places: There's no suggestion she's interested in Saudi jurists' views on capital punishment for sodomy or Yemeni precedents on women's rights."
