Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El Derecho romano ha seguido estando presente en Europa después de la caída del Imperio Romano. En esta circunstancia se basa uno de los valores fundamentales de la cultura europea: el imperio del Derecho (rule of law). El famoso estudioso británico del Derecho, Peter G. Stein, expone la historia del Derecho romano desde sus comienzos en la Roma republicana. Sigue las huellas de su influencia hasta el presente en los ordenamientos jurídicos de los principales Estados europeos. Su previa vigencia como Ius commune, como Derecho común, de los Estados de Europa sirve hoy de paradigma en el debate en torno a la unificación del Derecho privado en los países de la Unión Europea. El Derecho romano conserva así su gran importancia también para nuestra época. La nueva colección Historia de Europa, preparada y editada inicialmente por S. Fischer Verlag (Alemania), invita al descubrimiento de Europa y ofrece, desde muy diferentes perspectivas, un nuevo panorama histórico europeo desde la Antigüedad hasta el presente. Los distintos volúmenes, sucintos y de fácil lectura, se dirigen a un público amplio, que valore tanto una información objetiva como una clara exposición.

Download or read book Succession Law Practice and Society in Europe across the Centuries written by Maria Gigliola di Renzo Villata and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-03-19 with total page 652 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a broad overview of succession law, encompassing aspects of family law, testamentary law and legal history. It examines society and legal practice in Europe from the Middle Ages to the present from both a legal and a sociological perspective. The contributing authors investigate various aspects of succession law that have not yet been thoroughly examined by legal historians, and in doing so they not only add to our knowledge of past succession law but also provide a valuable key to interpreting and understanding current European succession law. Readers can explore such issues as the importance of a father’s permission to marry in relation to disinheritance, as well as inheritance transactions and private, dynastic and cross-border successions. Further themes addressed by the expert contributors include women’s inheritance rights, the laws of succession for the prince in legal consulting, and succession in the Rota Romana’s jurisprudence.

Download or read book Dead Voice written by Jesús D. Rodríguez-Velasco and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2020-01-24 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An exploration of the thirteenth-century law code known as Siete Partidas Conceived and promulgated by Alfonso X, King of Castile and León (r. 1252-1282), and created by a workshop of lawyers, legal scholars, and others, the set of books known as the Siete Partidas is both a work of legal theory and a legislative document designed to offer practical guidelines for the rendering of legal decisions and the management of good governance. Yet for all its practical reach, which extended over centuries and as far as the Spanish New World, it is an unusual text, argues Jesús R. Velasco, one that introduces canon and ecclesiastical law in the vernacular for explicitly secular purposes, that embraces intellectual disciplines and fictional techniques that normally lie outside legal science, and that cultivates rather than shuns perplexity. In Dead Voice, Velasco analyzes the process of the Siete Partidas's codification and the ways in which different cultural, religious, and legal traditions that existed on the Iberian Peninsula during the Middle Ages were combined in its innovative construction. In particular, he pays special attention to the concept of "dead voice," the art of writing the law in the vernacular of its clients as well as in the language of legal professionals. He offers an integrated reading of the Siete Partidas, exploring such matters as the production, transmission, and control of the material text; the collaboration between sovereignty and jurisdiction to define the environment where law applies; a rare legislation of friendship; and the use of legislation to characterize the people as "the soul of the kingdom," endowed with the responsibility of judging the stability of the political space. Presenting case studies beyond the Siete Partidas that demonstrate the incorporation of philosophical and fictional elements in the construction of law, Velasco reveals the legal processes that configured novel definitions of a subject and a people.
Download or read book La pesadilla que no acaba nunca written by Christian Laval and published by Editorial GEDISA. This book was released on 2017-05 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Europa se fragmenta, se desgarra, se desacredita. Los refugiados políticos y climáticos aumentan dramáticamente; los partidos xenófobos recogen el sentimiento de abandono de la población empobrecida; las vidas rotas por el desempleo son incontables. Y sin embargo, las fuerzas responsables de la crisis económica de la última década parecen fortalecidas. ¿Cómo explicarlo? En esta obra, última parte de una trilogía iniciada con La nueva razón del mundo y Común (Gedisa, 2013 y 2015), Christian Laval y Pierre Dardot vuelven a estimular nuestra reflexión con un brillante ensayo que pone su acento en la necesidad de comprender la lógica profunda de esta radicalización neoliberal, la cual lleva a cabo una confiscación de la experiencia común y funciona como un metódico sistema de vaciamiento de la democracia. Pero los autores también nos recuerdan que nada está decidido todavía. El despertar de la actividad democrática que vemos emerger en los movimientos y experimentos políticos de los últimos años es una señal de que la lucha contra el neoliberalismo y por habitar otra Europa ya ha comenzado.

Download or read book Defining Nations written by Tamar Herzog and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2008-10-01 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book Tamar Herzog explores the emergence of a specifically Spanish concept of community in both Spain and Spanish America in the eighteenth century. Challenging the assumption that communities were the natural result of common factors such as language or religion, or that they were artificially imagined, Herzog reexamines early modern categories of belonging. She argues that the distinction between those who were Spaniards and those who were foreigners came about as local communities distinguished between immigrants who were judged to be willing to take on the rights and duties of membership in that community and those who were not.
Download or read book New Europe Old Values written by Nada Bodiroga-Vukobrat and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-11-17 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the reactions to Europeanization and globalization in times of economic distress, including the transformation of European values in national legal cultures. The authors explore how European values, tradition and new legal challenges interconnect and dictate the paths of transition between old and new Europe. The first chapter starts with a question: can Roman Legal Tradition play a role of identity factor towards a New Europe? Can it be considered as a general value identifying new Europe, built on a minimum core of principles – persona, dominum, obligation, contract and inheritance – composing the whole European private law tradition? Subsequent chapters attempt to provide possible responses to the question: what is Europe today? The answers diverge, depending on the research area. The inherent dichotomy of human rights protection in Europe and the concept of ‘one law, one court’ are investigated in the second chapter, whereas the third chapter focuses on asylum and the interrelation and interdependence of the Court of Justice of the EU and the European Court of Human Rights. The next three chapters concentrate on matters of equal treatment and non-discrimination. The first contribution in this part reflects on the crisis and methodological and conceptual issues faced by modern anti-discrimination law. It is followed by a specific analysis of the empowerment of women or gender-balancing in company boards. The third contribution reveals the impact of the Croatian anti-discrimination law on private law relations. The next chapter deals with the issue of social rights in Croatia and the method of their regulation in the context of the new European values. The immense challenges posed by the market integration imperative and democratic transition have brought about different reactions in the national legal systems and legal cultures of both old and new Member States. As such, Europe has effectively been reunited, but what about the convergence of national legal cultures? This is the focal point of the remaining chapters, which focus on various issues, from internal market, competition law, consumer welfare, liberalization of network industries to the EU capital market. The magnitude of EU activity in these areas offers conclusive evidence that old and new paradigms are evolving and shaping the future of the EU.
