“Against Interpretation”? On Global (Non-)Law, The Breaking-Up Of Homo Juridicus, And The Disappearance Of The Jurist, Luca Siliquini-Cinelli

Journal of Civil Law Studies

This paper investigates the nullification of homo juridicus and the vanishing of the jurist in relation to the liberal global-order project and the emergence and spread of soft-networked channels of post-national governance. By inquiring into the shift from the individual’s active will to the sterile behavioural schemes prompted by the universalisation of liberalism and economic analysis of social interactions, it will be argued that the jurist and the (rule of) law are no longer needed in a post-national system of rational and mechanic causations. Through an analysis of Susan Sontag’s and Josef Esser’s accounts for and against the interpretative task, …

Secundum Civilis: The Constitution As An Enlightenment Code, Derek Warden

Journal of Civil Law Studies

The American Constitution has been the subject of heated debate since its formation. This article simply introduces a new argument. It suggests that there exists a “form”1 of an Enlightenment era code, which is met by the Constitution, and that the requirements of this form can be derived from inspection of the three great codes of the time: the Prussian, the Austrian, and the French. It further notes that these requirements are (1) Roman law influence; (2) natural law influence; and (3) that they perform the same functions—they abrogate the prior laws on their respective subjects and they are “complete” …

The Role Of Objective Good Faith In Current Contract Law: For A General Duty Of Inter Partes Cooperation And Solidarity, Lucas Abreu Barroso, Laio Portes Sthel

Journal of Civil Law Studies

Seen from the historical-cultural perspective, theoretical models of modernity, still present in law, are anachronistic before the increasingly complex and dynamic contemporary reality. In this scenario, and with the aim of providing a renewal of Brazilian Civil Law, the 2002 Civil Code was developed with several general clauses. Among them is the general clause of objective good faith and in the midst of its practical uses is its role in establishing the “attached duties”. The doctrine that discusses this topic, however, runs counter to the epistemological assumptions adopted in this study and thereby is insufficient and contradictory in relation to …

L’Évolution Historique Du Mariage En Espagne : De La Seconde République Au Franquisme, Ana Conde

Journal of Civil Law Studies

Until the late fifteenth century, the Iberian Peninsula was characterized by a diversity of matrimonial regimes. However, the Spanish society underwent profound changes after the Reconquista, particularly due to the introduction of religious unification processes and to the new political configuration of the Iberian Peninsula. The Council of Trent promoted the religious ceremony in order to fight illegal unions, so that between 1564 and 1870, only the canonical marriage was recognized in Spain.

Under the First Republic, the civil marriage was established and became mandatory, so as to become the only recognized form of marriage. Then, in 1875, with the …

Mariage Et Union De Personnes De Même Sexe Aux États-Unis : Une Affaire Compliquée Par Le Fédéralisme, Olivier Moréteau

Journal of Civil Law Studies

In the United States of America, because of federalism, the power to legislate on marriage and to decide who can marry and with whom, belongs to the legislature of the individual states. However, state legislative power may be curbed by state constitution (under the control of state courts and possible review by the state supreme court) and the United States Constitution (under the control of federal courts and possible review by the United States Supreme Court). The question whether homosexual couples have access to marriage was bound to become a constitutional issue. More and more states opened marriage to same-sex …
