Habsburgs on the Rio Grande
Largely forgotten today, the Second Mexican Empire was a transformative nineteenth-century moment. Raymond Jonas explores the conspiracy of European rulers and Mexican conservatives to erect an Old World empire on New World soil. Though quixotic, it was a scheme with a purpose: to contain both Mexican democracy and the rising United States.
Land Law and Urban Policy in Context
This book is a collection of essays honouring and engaging with the work of the late Professor Patrick McAuslan. It is a collection that narrates, analyses and critiques McAuslan’s contributions, as well as offering substantive perspectives on how his work has impacted the legal fields in which he was involved: including those of land law, urban planning law and policy, land use and participation in developing countries, democratic constitutionalism, and legal education. The essays present McAuslan’s contributions in the contexts in which they emerged, and according to both the circumstances and motivations that shaped them, as well as the challenges they encountered. It thus provides an ideal point of engagement for scholars, students and policy makers that have already interacted with McAuslan’s ideas and work, or who have yet to do so.

El renacimiento de la cultura jurídica en Occidente
"Su autor, empieza presentando un esbozo histórico del entorno jurídico de la época renacentista, partiendo del siglo XI. Después se adentra en los antecedentes del renacimiento cultural y jurídico medieval, haciendo una breve referencia histórica a la etapa que precedió al "despertar" de la cultura jurídica occidental (siglos V al XI), para adentrarse de lleno en esta época y explicar la génesis y consolidación de la escuela de los glosadores (siglos XI al XIII), y su posterior afianzamiento y desarrollo, a partir del surgimiento de la Escuela de los comentaristas o "posglosadores" (del siglo XIII al XV). La Iglesia, la ciencia canonista y la formación del elemento romano-canónico, el esplendor y expansión de la escuela de los canonistas, del siglo XI al XV, son los temas que se abordan en este estudio. Por último, se ofrece una visión retrospectiva medieval de la cultura jurídica, desde la perspectiva de los siglos V y XV, para comprender así el renacimiento que tuvo en Occidente".
