Dieser Band fragt nach Georg Friedrich Puchtas Begriff des Rechts und seiner Auffassung von den Aufgaben des Juristen bei Erkenntnis und Anwendung des Rechts. Dabei lässt der Autor die unter dem Schlagwort »Begriffsjurisprudenz« bekannten stereotypen Bewertungen außen vor und bezieht die prägenden geistigen Auseinandersetzungen und Vorstellungen seiner Zeit ein. Ausgehend von Puchtas Wahrheits- und Wissenschaftsbegriff, der in vorrechtlichen Überzeugungen wurzelt, werden die Grundbegriffe seines Rechtsverständnisses entwickelt. Im Mittelpunkt der Untersuchung stehen dabei seine an der zentralen Rolle des römischen Juristen der Antike orientierte Rechtsquellentheorie sowie die tragende Bedeutung des Systems der subjektiven Rechte, das der gesamten Rechtsordnung immanent ist und auf Geschichte und Vernunft zurückgeführt wird. Es wird erkennbar, inwiefern Puchtas Rechtsdenken zeitbedingt ist und inwiefern es zukunftsweisende Elemente enthält.

A collaboration of leading historians of European law and philosophers of law and politics identifying and explaining the practice of interpretation of law in the 18th century. The goal: establishing the actual practice in the Age of Enlightenment, and explaining why this was the case. The ideology of the Age was that law, i.e., the will of the sovereign, can be explicitly and appropriately stated, thus making interpretation redundant. However, the reality was that in the 18th century, there was no one leading source of national law that would be the object of interpretation. Instead, there was a plurality of sources of law: the Roman Law, local customary law, and the royal ordinance. However, in deciding a case in a court of law, the law must speak with one voice. Hence, interpretation to unify the norms was inevitable. What was the process? What role did justification in terms of reason, the hallmark of the Enlightenment, play? These are some of the questions addressed.
This Oxford Handbook examines the sources of international law, how the understanding of sources changed throughout the history of international law; how the main legal theories understood sources; the relationship between sources and the legitimacy of international law; and how sources differ across the various sub-areas of international law.
The hunt for beneficial owners is on. Like an elephant, the beneficial owner hides in the jungle of complex legal structures, waiting to be discovered by eager prosecutors. But what lies behind this metaphor? What is a Beneficial Owner? Is beneficial ownership a right? What does this right encompass? What is the value of this right compared to other rights? And if beneficial ownership is not a right, is it still a legally relevant relation? How do courts, namely the U.S. Supreme Court deal with the concept? When do Anglo-American judges and European scholars resort to the concept? This book approaches these questions from two perspectives: legal fundamentals and the field of U.S. federal Ind...
