Download or read book Rechtsgeschichte als Kunstprodukt written by Michael Stolleis and published by Nomos Verlagsgesellschaft. This book was released on 1997 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Der Frankfurter Rechtshistoriker fragt in seinem Wurzburger Vortrag nach den Voraussetzungen und Leistungen der "Begriffsgeschichte" und gelangt von da zu den Grundbedingungen historischer Analyse. Nicht nur die "Begriffe" sind ihm verdchtig, auch die "Tatsachen." "Begriffe" sind Worte, und was wir fur historische Tatsachen halten, sind gut verburgte Nachrichten aus Texten, an deren Glaubwurdigkeit wir aus pragmatischen Grunden nicht zweifeln. Was bleibt, ist die Analyse des Sprachgebrauchs fruherer Zeiten anhand von Texten. Jede Rechtskultur ist eine Kommunikationsgemeinschaft von Sprechenden und Schreibenden. Sie zu verstehen, ist nur durch bersetzungsarbeit mglich; der Weg zum Denken fuhrt uber die Sprache.Der Verfasser pldiert deshalb fur einen Verzicht auf irrefuhrende idealistische Prmissen bei "Begriffen," speziell in der juristischen Dogmengeschichte, fur Vorsicht bei der Annahme von "Tatsachen," fur eine Relativierung der Trennung fiktiven und wissenschaftlichen Schreibens sowie fur die Anerkennung der sowohl produktiven als auch verflschenden Rolle von Phantasie und Erinnerung.

Download or read book The Public International Law Theory of Hans Kelsen written by Jochen von Bernstorff and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-10-28 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This analysis of Hans Kelsen's international law theory takes into account the context of the German international legal discourse in the first half of the twentieth century, including the reactions of Carl Schmitt and other Weimar opponents of Kelsen. The relationship between his Pure Theory of Law and his international law writings is examined, enabling the reader to understand how Kelsen tried to square his own liberal cosmopolitan project with his methodological convictions as laid out in his Pure Theory of Law. Finally, Jochen von Bernstorff discusses the limits and continuing relevance of Kelsenian formalism for international law under the term of 'reflexive formalism', and offers a reflection on Kelsen's theory of international law against the background of current debates over constitutionalisation, institutionalisation and fragmentation of international law. The book also includes biographical sketches of Hans Kelsen and his main students Alfred Verdross and Joseph L. Kunz.

Download or read book The Foundations of European Transnational Private Law written by Anna Beckers and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2024-05-30 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since Anu Bradford's groundbreaking book on the Brussels Effect there is a vastly evolving literature on the EU as a global regulatory actor as well as the global reach of EU law. This edited collection connects to this debate. Yet, it shifts the focus from the currently predominant public law focus to investigating European and EU private law and to connecting to literature and research on transnational law. To that end, it proceeds first conceptually by introducing and giving shape to the notion of a “European Transnational Private Law” through four conceptual contributions by the editors. Secondly, it focuses on several sectors (finance, taxation, investment, consumer law, labour law) and topics (climate litigation, global value chains, non-discrimination) to trace sector-specifically the role of EU private law in relation to transnational legal ordering.

Download or read book Natural Law and Laws of Nature in Early Modern Europe written by Michael Stolleis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-22 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This impressive volume is the first attempt to look at the intertwined histories of natural law and the laws of nature in early modern Europe. These notions became central to jurisprudence and natural philosophy in the seventeenth century; the debates that informed developments in those fields drew heavily on theology and moral philosophy, and vice versa. Historians of science, law, philosophy, and theology from Europe and North America here come together to address these central themes and to consider the question; was the emergence of natural law both in European jurisprudence and natural philosophy merely a coincidence, or did these disciplinary traditions develop within a common conceptual matrix, in which theological, philosophical, and political arguments converged to make the analogy between legal and natural orders compelling. This book will stimulate new debate in the areas of intellectual history and the history of philosophy, as well as the natural and human sciences in general.

Download or read book Dealings with God written by Francisca Loetz and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-13 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Early modern European society took a serious view of blasphemy, and drew upon a wide range of sanctions - including the death penalty - to punish those who cursed, swore and abused God. Whilst such attitudes may appear draconian today, this study makes clear that in the past, blasphemy was regarded as a very real threat to society. Based on a wealth of primary sources, including court records, theological and ecclesiastical writings and official city statutes, Francisca Loetz explores verbal forms of blasphemy and the variety of contexts within which it could occur. Honour conflicts, theological disputation, social and political provocation, and religious self-questioning all proved fertile ground for accusations of blasphemy, and her contention - that blasphemers often meant more than they said - reveals the underlying complexity of an apparently simple concept. This innovative approach interprets cases of verbal blasphemy as 'speech actions' that reflect broader political, social and religious concerns. Cases in Protestant Zurich are compared with the situation in Catholic Lucerne and related to findings in other parts of Europe (Germany, France, England, Italy) to provide a thorough discussion of different historical approaches to blasphemy - ecclesiastical, legal, intellectual, social, and cultural - in the Early Modern period. In so doing the book offers intriguing suggestions about what a cultural history of religiousness could and should be. By linking a broad overview of the issue of blasphemy, with case studies from Zurich and Lucerne, this book provides a fascinating insight into a crucial, but often misunderstood aspect of early-modern society. The conclusions reached not only offer a much fuller understanding of the situation in Zurich, but also have resonance for all historians of Reformation Europe.
