Notes de bas de page

[1] Merci à Jean.
[2] Des revues juridiques libres aussi. Et des mémoires et thèses de droit en libre accès. Une liste des sites de thèses et mémoires en droit, normalement exhaustive, est tenue à jour sur le wiki de Juriconnexion.

JOURNAL: German Law Journal

The new issue of the German Law Journal is available at www.germanlawjournal.com.


The current symposium issue was convened by GLJ editorial board member, Floris de Witte and Moritz Hartmann and contains pertinent scholarly interventions into the debate over the state of the EU's political and economic constitutional set-up and we are thrilled about this timely undertaking.

WORKSHOP: JURISDICTIONAL COMPLEXITY IN WESTERN LEGAL HISTORY Project

In addition to the upcoming Irish Society of Comparative Law Conference this Friday and Saturday, a Workshop on JURISDICTIONAL COMPLEXITY IN WESTERN LEGAL HISTORY will take place at the University of Limerick next Monday.

The project abstract is here. The first paragraph reads:

Western legal histories are frequently told as very simplistic and whiggish tales. They highlight common laws at the expense of both myriad, layered local laws and other, less formal, normative orders. But the creation of genuinely general national laws, a legal ‘system’ centred on the state, and the elimination of competing jurisdictions and marginalisation of non-legal norms was a very long historical process. Indeed, the ideas and institutions of many of the competitors of national law have survived into the present.  Because the historical and contemporary importance of these jurisdictions is not reflected in current historiography, the proposed volume in comparative legal history will examine Western jural complexity from the sixteenth through the nineteenth century. Only the study of these marginalised normative orders—each worthy of study in their own right—will provide us with the appropriate context necessary to understand the laws that have continued into the present period. Their failures will tell us much about the successes of our contemporary common laws.

The Workshop is led by me and Dirk Heirbaut (Ghent). We met in Ghent last year and hope to publish the collection next year. We have been generously supported by the Gerda Henkel Foundation

SHAMELESS SELF-PROMOTION: Donlan on Hybridity and Beyond

It's that time again ...

I'd welcome any feedback on my draft--and published--work available online, some (primarily comparative law, and legal history, of Ireland and Louisiana) here; and some (eg, work on Edmund Burke, etc) here.

In particular, I'm set to remove my draft version of 'To hybridity and beyond: reflections on legal and normative complexity' shortly to finalise it for publication in a comparative collection on mixed legal systems. I'd be very grateful for your thoughts.

By the way, I'm happy to flag the work of other members, but you'll have to prepare your own shameless message for me to post ...
