The magna charta of cross-border family law The Brussels IIbis Regulation is the magna charta of cross-border divorce and cross-border lawsuits concerning responsibility in Europe. It has dramatically changed the law and the practice of the law for families in the European Union. Thus, it has substantially changed the nature of lawyers' advice in such cases. The volume Brussels IIbis Regulation (2017) of the "European Commentaries on Private International Law", edited by Magnus/Mankowski will serve the need of an ever rising number of practitioners concerned with European divorce, custody, or child abduction cases, and it will certainly stir academic discussion all over Europe. This book combines in-depth analysis with a genuine and truly European perspective and covers the jurisprudence of the European Court of Justice (ECJ). Furthermore, it integrates thorough and important national case law. It is an indispensable working tool for everyone involved in this field. Die Magna Charta des europäischen Familienrechts Die Brüssel IIa-Verordnung (engl. Brussels IIbis Regulation) ist wahrscheinlich das wichtigste internationale Rechtsinstrument, sicherlich aber das wichtigste in Europa. Sie hat auf dramatische Art und Weise das Recht und die familienrechtliche Praxis in der EU geändert. Damit hat sich auch der Charakter der Rechtsberatung in grenzüberschreitenden Familiensachen massiv geändert. Auf diesen Umstand geht der englischsprachige Band Brussels IIbis Regulation (2017) aus der von Magnus/Mankowski herausgegebenen Kommentarreihe "European Commentaries on Private International Law" aktuell ein. Dabei werden die neuesten Entwicklungen in der Rechtsprechung des EuGH sowie ausgewählter praxisrelevanter nationaler Entscheidungen fundiert analysiert. Überdies wird die Verordnung verständlich erläutert, zu aktuelle Streitfragen eigenständig und lösungsorientiert Stellung genomen. - Ein weiterer großer Vorteil für deutsche Juristen ist, dass für die Fallbearbeitung die englischsprachige Argumentation direkt aus dem Kommentar übernommen werden kann.

Focusing on the inheritance rights of people born outside wedlock, this book explores the legal evolution of their rights as Brazil moved from colony to nation. It offers a unique counterpoint to the conventional political history of the Brazilian Empire, which ignores important legal change involving family and inheritance law. The book also provides a new and complementary approach to recent scholarship on the family in nineteenth-century Brazil by using that research as a starting point for examining illegitimacy, marriage, and concubinage from the neglected perspective of legal change. The author’s exhaustive study of parliamentary debates reveals how the private sphere of the family acquired fundamental significance in the public discourse of Brazil’s imperial legislators. The concluding theme of the book treats the reactionary shift away from liberal reform, the result of the “scandal in the courtroom” that the reform generated.

"Anne Orthwood's Bastard" tells the story of a maidservant from Bristol, England who emigrated to Virginia's Eastern Shore in 1662, became pregnant by a caddish nephew of a colonial politician, and died in childbirth, leaving an illegitimate son and a host of knotty legal problems. Through a study of the four cases stemming from this birth and the people involved, Pagan uses the community's response to illuminate the emerging distinctiveness of early American law. He argues that the peculiar structure of Virginia's economy and labour system accounts for many of the differences between colonial and English law, and contends that Virginia leaders skilfully shaped legal doctrines and institutions to serve their own agenda.
