Abstract

"Solon (c 658-558 BC) is famous as both statesman and poet but also, and above all, as the paramount lawmaker of ancient Athens. Though his works survive only in fragments, we know from the writings of Herodotus and Plutarch that his constitutional reforms against the venality, greed and political power-play of Attica's tyrants and noblemen were hugely influential - and may even be said to have laid the foundations of western democracy. Solon's legal injunctions covered the widest range of topics and issues: economics and labour; sexual morality; social issues; and society and politics. Yet despite their fame and influence (and Solon's life and work generated a lively reception history), no complete edition of these writings has yet been published. This book offers the definitive critical edition of Solon's laws that has long been needed. It comprises the original Greek fragments with English translations, commentaries, a comprehensive introduction and important comparative Latin texts. It will be enthusiastically welcomed by specialists in ancient Greek language and history."--Publisher's website.

Abstract

La contestation islamique des vingt dernières années remet en cause le fonctionnement actuel des sociétés arabo-musulmanes qui connaissent d'importants problèmes économiques, sociaux, démographiques... Elle révèle la perte de légitimité des modèles et des valeurs, notamment des systèmes juridiques en vigueur. Ainsi le projet politique d'instaurer un ordre islamique légitimé par la Loi coranique (la charia) et par l'exemple des premiers musulmans, se présente-t-il comme une voie possible de recherche de solutions à partir de valeurs authentiques. Mais comment ce projet peut-il s'accommoder des interprétations fort variées de la Loi par le droit, qui ont été produites au cours de l'histoire des sociétés arabes et musulmanes, spécialement depuis la réforme du droit islamique à l'œuvre depuis le siècle dernier ? Quel est le poids, dans ce processus, du droit importé et imposé, des réappropriations de la culture juridique par les États modernes et de la négociation des normes par les individus et les groupes ? En quoi ces mutations obligent-elles à repenser la relation qui s'est instaurée dans ces sociétés entre justice, vérité et histoire ? Telles sont les premières questions posées par ce livre, en partant des expériences collectives de la modernité, et de la réalité des cultures juridiques, dans deux pays arabes du Machreq, l'Egypte et la Syrie, dont les mutations dans ce domaine ont pesé sur les choix faits ailleurs dans le monde arabe et musulman. Bernard Botiveau a accordé une attention particulière au renouveau du savoir et de l'enseignement sur le droit des pays arabes, dans les universités islamiques notamment ; à l'émergence de nouveaux acteurs juridiques, avocats, juges et « justiciables » ; enfin à l'effet des constructions sociales du droit (en particulier dans les statuts personnels) sur une redéfinition de la norme islamique, qui est provoquée autant par les mouvements politiques contestataires que par des gouvernements en mal de légitimité. Au-delà du…

Abstract

Trop souvent occultée, ou simplement passée sous silence, l'interprétation occupe une place primordiale en droit. Consacrant à ce thème ses premiers travaux de recherche, le Séminaire d'études juridiques interdisciplinaires des Facultés universitaires Saint-Louis a suscité la collaboration de juristes, de philosophes, d'historiens, d'économistes, de sociologues, de psychanalystes et de philologues. Le sujet est traité d'abord sous ses aspects méthodologiques fondamentaux, puis dans le cadre particulier de différentes branches du droit et, enfin, dans une perspective spécifiquement interdisciplinaire. L'ouvrage s'adresse aux juristes soucieux d'une articulation de la théorie et de la pratique ainsi qu'à toute personne intéressée aux problèmes soulevés par l'interprétation en général.

Abstract

The fundamental idea of "law and aging" as a discrete category of legal principle and theory is controversial: What special feature and characteristics of "older adults" justify and even require a particular theoretical approach? Is it possible to formulate legitimate generalizations about a group identified as "older adults", while avoiding the harmful stereotypes of ageism? And what if anything is gained by the approach? In an attempt to provide answers to these difficult questions, this book presents a collection of different theoretical frameworks to the field of law and ageing. Written by the leading scholars in the field, this book describes the diverse and rich theoretical landscape of this field, and argues that time has come to recognize the importance of "Jurisprudential Gerontology" for the future development of the socio-legal science of ageing.

Abstract

Autonomy in the Law considers one of the most important benefits of the rule of law. Juxtaposing European and American conceptions of autonomy in the law of families, capital punishment and, criminal trials reveals the common values that justify all legal systems. Law protects the autonomy of individuals and associations by defending the boundaries of their own self-rule. This book illuminates the fundamental purpose of law by examining how European and American lawyers, judges and citizens do and should apply legal autonomy to the practical circumstances of litigation, legislation and the law.
