Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Until the 1960s, it was widely assumed that in Western Europe the 'New Monarchy' propelled kingdoms and principalities onto a modern nation-state trajectory. John I of Portugal (1358-1433), Charles VII (1403-1461) and Louis XI (1423-1483) of France, Henry VII and Henry VIII of England (1457-1509, 1509-1553), Isabella of Castile (1474-1504) and Ferdinand of Aragon (1479-1516) were, by improving royal administration, by bringing more continuity to communication with their estates and by introducing more regular taxation, all seen to have served that goal. In this view, princes were assigned to the role of developing and implementing the sinews of state as a sovereign entity characterized by the coherence of its territorial borders and its central administration and government. They shed medieval traditions of counsel and instead enforced relations of obedience toward the emerging 'state'."--Provided by publisher.

Download or read book The Conseil Priv and the Parlements in the Age of Louis XIV written by Albert N. Hamscher and published by American Philosophical Society. This book was released on 1987 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This vol., while encompassing the entire reign of Louis XIV & all the parlements of the realm, has the narrow focus of investigating the impact of royal policy on the judicial authority of the parlements as revealed in their relations with the king's councils, notably the one that specialized in judicial affairs, the Conseil Prive. This is above all a study of the evolution of conciliar jurisprudence & judicial procedure, as much an exercise in what the French call "l'histoire du droit" as an opportunity to observe in a novel way the resolution of some of the most pressing political problems in the Age of Louis XIV. But the overall aim is to understand the practical consequences of royal absolutism for the kingdom's highest judicial institutions.

Download or read book Politics Culture and Class in the French Revolution written by Lynn Hunt and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2016-10-17 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When this book was published in 1984, it reframed the debate on the French Revolution, shifting the discussion from the Revolution's role in wider, extrinsic processes (such as modernization, capitalist development, and the rise of twentieth-century totalitarian regimes) to its central political significance: the discovery of the potential of political action to consciously transform society by molding character, culture, and social relations. In a new preface to this twentieth-anniversary edition, Hunt reconsiders her work in the light of the past twenty years' scholarship.

It includes case studies of the Habsburg Empire and German colonialism in Africa, Asian case studies of (post)colonial India and the Dutch East Indies/Indonesia, China and French Indochina, and a special discussion on 20th-century Cambodia and the temples of Angkor.

Download or read book Le commissaire aux comptes written by Yves Chaput and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Un commissaire aux comptes ? Pour quoi faire ? La grandeur ou la décadence d'une gestion se lisent d'emblée dans les comptes sociaux. Un contrôle efficace de la comptabilité est encore la meilleure prévention des difficultés éventuelles d'une entreprise. Le recours, obligatoire ou facultatif, à un commissaire aux comptes par une société n'est donc pas une simple formalité. La psychologie n'en est pas absente. Le système français est un compromis, réaliste, entre le dynamisme d'une profession libérale indépendante, même à l'égard de l'Etat, et les contraintes d'un ordre public économique multiforme. Aussi, sans omettre des comparaisons avec les systèmes étrangers, que la mondialisation des affaires impose, cette étude répond à trois questions essentielles : qui choisir ? Qu'en attendre et à quels coûts ? De la pertinence des réponses peut dépendre le succès ou l'échec d'une politique économique nationale comme la compétitivité d'une entreprise isolée.
