Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - When Napoleon Bonaparte declared that his greatest achievement was not his military campaigns but the Civil Code of 1804, he was making a claim that history has largely vindicated. The Napoleonic Code - establishing equality before the law, property rights, secular civil authority, and a systematic written legal framework - replaced the feudal patchwork of customary laws that had governed French society for centuries. Within a decade, versions of the Code had been imposed across occupied Europe. Within a century, its principles had shaped legal systems from Latin America to Japan, from Quebec to Louisiana.This book reconstructs the Code's creation through the records of the legislative commissions Napoleon convened, the debates among jurists who drafted its provisions, and the political negotiations that shaped its final form. It examines what the Code preserved from revolutionary legislation, what it reversed - particularly regarding women's legal status and divorce rights - and how Napoleon's personal interventions shaped specific provisions during drafting sessions he attended himself.The narrative traces the Code's global diffusion: how French military expansion carried it across Europe, how colonial administration transplanted it to three continents, and how postcolonial legal systems retained, adapted, or struggled to replace frameworks they had inherited without choosing. It also examines the Code's enduring tensions - between revolutionary equality and Napoleonic authoritarianism, between legal universalism and the specific power structures the Code was designed to serve.A carefully sourced account of how a single legal document became one of history's most consequential instruments of institutional transformation.
