This monograph makes a seminal contribution to existing literature on the importance of Roman law in the development of political thought in Europe. In particular it examines the expression ‘dominus ...mundi’, following it through the texts of the medieval jurists—the Glossators and Post-Glossators—up to the political thought of Hobbes. Understanding the concept of dominus mundi sheds light on how medieval jurists understood ownership of individual things; it is more complex than it might seem, and this book investigates these complexities. The book also offers important new insights into Thomas Hobbes, especially with regard to the end of dominus mundi and the replacement by Leviathan. Finally, the book has important relevance for contemporary political theory. With the fading of political diversity, Monateri argues ‘that the actual setting of globalisation represents the reappearance of the Ghost of the Dominus Mundi, a political refoulé—repressed—a reappearance of its sublime nature, and a struggle to restore its universal legitimacy, and take its place.’ In making this argument, the book adds an important original vision to current debates in legal and political philosophy.
Commerce in the Roman Empire of the first three centuries CE operated within a well-established legal framework provided by Roman law. This framework was the product of both legal theory and legal ...practice. Centuries of Praetorian modification of the ancient ius civile, augmented by conceptual legal thought provided by the Roman jurists had produced a body of law which permitted commerce to flourish and to expand. Central to this body of law was the contract of letting and hiring, one of the four named "consensual" contracts in Roman law. Building on the pioneering work undertaken by Fiori (1999) on Roman conceptual thought about letting and hiring, this books fills an important gap in the current scholarly literature on this contract and its place in Roman commerce.

Et corruptissima re publica plurimae leges: Ein Schriftsteller, der vor fast zweitausend Jahren mit einem halben Dutzend Worten die grassierende Verrechtlichung zum Gradmesser der Verdorbenheit eines ...Gemeinwesens zu machen vermochte, verdient nicht nur einer der größten Stilisten der Weltliteratur genannt zu werden, sondern sollte als hellsichtiger Zeitdiagnostiker auch der gegenwärtigen Jurisprudenz nicht gleichgültig sein.
In this book, Andrew Riggsby offers a survey of the main areas of Roman law, both substantive and procedural, and how the legal world interacted with the rest of Roman life. Emphasising basic ...concepts, he recounts its historical development and focuses in particular on the later Republic and early centuries of the Roman Empire. The volume is designed as an introductory work, with brief chapters that will be accessible to college students with little knowledge of legal matters or Roman antiquity. The text is also free of technical language and Latin terminology. It can be used in courses on Roman law, Roman history, or comparative law, but it will also serve as a useful reference for more advanced students and scholars.
The common law approach to the rights of a person who engages in unauthorised intervention in the affairs of another where it is necessary to protect the interests of that other person is incoherent. ...The general rule that the rights of an intervenor are not recognised is subject to narrow exceptions arising under the law of agency of necessity and bailment, but even these provide inconsistent remedies and do not protect the rights of an intervenor who has no prior relationship with the person benefited. This paper critiques the current law and proposes a new set of rules, based on the Roman law doctrine of 'negotiorum gestio' (management of the affairs of another) as developed in modern European law that would balance the rights of the intervenor and the person on whose behalf the intervenor acts.

Este trabajo se agrupan en dos partes diferenciadas: por un lado, la propiamente dispositiva sobre las edificaciones urbanas, donde anteceden algunas observaciones sobre los términos y expresiones: ...“urbanismo" y “política urbanística", que enmarcan la aplicación de un sistema legislativo que, a nuestro juicio, se refiere a unas disposiciones que conciernen a todo el mundo romano y que se refleja ya en el Derecho romano clásico, y no necesariamente vinculado al conocido declive urbano que afecta como fenómeno a los grandes núcleos urbanos en la época posclásica. Mientras que la segunda parte acomete un análisis del papel desarrollado por la mujer como munificente, y como sujeto que interviene en la pollicitatio, especialmente relevante desde el s. I.
