Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Fiduciary Law written by Evan J. Criddle and published by Oxford Handbooks. This book was released on 2019-05-27 with total page 1028 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Oxford Handbook of Fiduciary Law provides a comprehensive overview of critical topics in fiduciary law and theory through chapters authored by leading scholars. The Handbook opens with surveys of the many fields of law in which fiduciary duties arise, including agency law, trust law, corporate law, pension law, bankruptcy law, family law, employment law, legal representation, health care, and international law. Drawing on these surveys, the Handbook offers a synthetic analysis of fiduciary law's key concepts and principles. Chapters in the Handbook explore the defining features of fiduciary relationships, clarify the distinctive fiduciary duties that arise in these relationships, and identify the remedies available for breach of fiduciary duties. The volume also provides numerous comparative perspectives on fiduciary law from eminent legal historians and from scholars with deep expertise in a diverse array of the world's legal systems. Finally, the Handbook lays the groundwork for future research on fiduciary law and theory by highlighting cross-cutting themes, identifying persistent theoretical and practical challenges, and exploring how the field could be enriched through empirical analysis and interdisciplinary insights from economics, philosophy, and psychology. Unparalleled in its breadth and depth of coverage, The Oxford Handbook of Fiduciary Law represents an invaluable resource for practitioners, policymakers, scholars, and students in this essential field of law.

Download or read book Fundamentals of Roman Private Law written by George Mousourakis and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-07-03 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roman law forms a vital part of the intellectual background of many legal systems currently in force in Continental Europe, Latin America, East Asia and other parts of the world. Knowledge of Roman law, therefore, constitutes an essential component of a sound legal education as well as the education of the student of history. This book begins with a historical introduction, which traces the evolution of Roman law from the earliest period of Roman history up to and including Justinian's codification in the sixth century AD. Then follows an exposition of the principal institutions of Roman private law: the body of rules and principles relating to individuals in Roman society and regulating their personal and proprietary relationships. In this part of the book special attention is given to the Roman law of things, which forged the foundations for much of the modern law of property and obligations in European legal systems. Combining a law specialist's informed perspective with a historical and cultural focus, the book provides an accessible source of reference for students and researchers in many diverse fields of legal and historical learning.

This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Manual of the Principles of Roman Law Relating to Persons, Property, and Obligations: With a Historical Introduction There are already in existence so many works upon Roman Law of the highest erudition and authority that it seems necessary to offer some explanation of the appearance of the present volume. The purpose of this work is somewhat special. Far from seeking either to place itself alongside of, or to enter into rivalry with, the already recognised authorities upon the subject, it seeks rather to present the results of their critical erudition in a form and in terms free from technicalities, and to expound the main principles of the matured Roman Law relating specially to Persons, Property, and Obligations, but excluding the Law of Succession and Actions, in so far as these are the foundation of modern legal science, in a manner that does not involve as a pre-requisite a knowledge of the Latin language. In this respect the present work seeks to be an introduction to the study of law that will be available to the interested layman no less than to the would-be lawyer. By means of a succinct Historical Introduction, and throughout the text, it has been sought to indicate the course of the development of the Roman legal institutions and principles, a knowledge of which is essential to the true appreciation of any legal system. This work has been prompted as the result of the experience obtained by the author during a number of years in lecturing to Egyptian students. The Egyptian Native Codes being based, in very large measure, upon the French Codes, a knowledge of the principles of Roman Law is essential to the student of law in Egypt, who, however, suffers from the disadvantage that he has no knowledge of the Latin language. While it is, therefore, impossible to expound the subject to him either directly or by way of commentary upon the Latin texts, it is, at the same time, necessary to present to the student, in language that will be readily understood, a statement of the main principles of the Roman Law in such a manner as will both compensate for his lack of a classical education and do fair justice to the subject. With this object in view, the subject is here expounded by a method of divisions and sub-divisions, each of which is, as far as possible, self-contained; on which account, indeed, there may appear to be, at times, somewhat of redundancy.
