This volume looks at different ways in which society has been regulated historically. It covers public law, codes of honour and social mores, examining the challenges offered to legal order by social elites, social misfits and social outlaws. It looks, in short, at the mechanisms employed in the past to retain social discipline or to create order out of disorder or social breakdown. Essays on a range of topics, covering different centuries and different countries are all welcome for consideration.
Essays should offer original individual interpretation and research on a given topic and be in excess of 8,000 words. If you are interested in contributing, please do get in touch as soon as possible. You will then need to submit a 500 word abstract and a 200 word biography before Monday July 15th. If commissioned, you would then be given 12 months to write the essay.
We look forward to receiving abstracts.
Kind regards

UPDATE: COMPARATIVE LEGAL HISTORY - THE OFFICIAL JOURNAL OF THE EUROPEAN SOCIETY FOR COMPARATIVE LEGAL HISTORY

The first issue of Comparative Legal History (CLH), the official publication of the European Society for Comparative Legal History (ESCLH), has now been published.

We're very pleased with our first issue. We're also happy to note that members of the ESCLH receive a free subscription to CLH!

The journal:

is a peer-reviewed international and comparative review of law and history. Its articles explore both internal legal history (doctrinal and disciplinary developments in the law) and external legal history (legal ideas and institutions in wider contexts). Firmly rooted in the complexity of the various Western legal traditions worldwide, it also provides a forum for the investigation of other laws and law-like normative traditions around the globe. Scholarship on comparative and trans-national historiography, including trans-disciplinary approaches, is particularly welcome. 


CLH has an exceptional staff and international board and is published by the forward-thinking, helpful folks at Hart Publishing.


The preface introducing the journal is available here; a sample article is available here.

Purpose

Human history fluctuates unceasingly between two opposite poles: violence and disorder on one side, and demands for settlement and peace on the other: that is a quest for rules, establishing uniformity and predictability for social behaviors. Between the two poles, a lawless society (anomia) and an order established by a legal system, there is embedded a combat between a stubborn defense of antiquated privileges and new claims of freedom. This struggle occurred again and again in European society from the time of Irnerius at the beginning of the twelfth century in different contexts and with different problems that jurists were asked to resolve. When confronted with these issues, from time to time the jurists wisely imposed limits on human behavior with the imposition of norms from positive law or from higher norms such as natural law. They imposed the ‘dogmata iuris’ to regulate the spontaneous but disordered emerging of vigorous new energies that were then adopted for common good of society.

NOTICE: Environment, Law and History Blog

David Schorr, from the Law Faculty of the Tel Aviv University, has informed us about a new blog - managed by Schorr himself and by Sarah Milov - devoted to a very original topic: the connections between environmental history and legal history (and other related fields).
Here a description of the blog:
"The connections between the environment, law, and history are deep and pervasive. Many of us, from many disciplines – law, history, geography, and environmental studies to name a few – have been working at the intersections of these fields for some time, but have had no common forum for exchanging views and information. This blog aims to enable such exchanges, allowing us to share ideas and learn about scholarship, conferences, and opportunities for collaboration with colleagues around the world".

BOOK: Essays by the lawyer Alessandro Criscuolo, edited by Stefano Vinci

Alessandro Criscuolo. Un avvocato tra età liberale e fascismo: un'antologia di scritti editi ed inediti, a cura di Stefano Vinci, In Quaderni della Rivista "Le Corti Pugliesi" 1, Napoli: Edizioni Scientifiche Italiane, 2013


Abstract by the author:

"Alessandro Criscuolo was one of major figures in criminal advocacy between 1800 and 1900 in South of Italy. Chairman of the Board of the Bar Association of Taranto for over twenty years, his long legal profession there is witnessed by a rich collection consists of books, essays and miscellaneous writings in his signature through which it's possible  to learn about its cultural eclecticism that embodied a full the nineteenth-century character of the lawyer, that the study of law accompanied the passion for history, poetry and literature in perfect cohesion. In the courtroom, in the halls of the city and provincial council, in speeches and public lectures, writings and legal allegations Criscuolo gave proof of a wonderful culture in the round that allowed him to expand in every respect, with mastery of language and concepts".

BOOK: Dutch New York and the Law


BOOK: Martyn, Musson & Pihlajamäki (eds.), From the Judge's Arbitrium to the Legality Principle Legislation as a Source of Law in Criminal Trials [Comparative Studies in Continental and Anglo-American Legal History (CSC), Band 31, 2013, 407 p.


Duncker & Humblot published a volume edited by Georges Martyn (UGent), Anthony Musson (Exeter) and Heikki Pihlajamäki (Helsinki) in the Comparative Studies in Continental and Anglo-American Legal History Series. The book (407 p., € 89,90) covers the legality principle in criminal affairs.

 Abstract:
The legality principle characterizes all western legal systems, and it has become an integral part of the Western rule of law and the international human rights law. The principle dates back to enlightened jurists such as Cesare Beccaria and to social contract thinkers such as Charles de Secondat de Montesquieu, according to whom judges were to act only as the mouthpiece of the statutory law. Paul Johann Anselm von Feuerbach, the inventor of the famous maxim nullum crimen, nulla poena sine lege, developed these thoughts further. The emergence of the legality principle links closely to the teachings on the division of powers. The studies of this volume cover most of Europe from England, Italy and Spain to Sweden, Russia and England, and both the South and North American continents. In most parts of Europe, the nineteenth-century criminal law reforms form an integral part of the ›liberal‹ agenda. These changes took place, however, at different times in different parts of the Western world, and for slightly different reasons. Comparative legal history shows, furthermore, that the roots of the principle date much further back in history than the eighteenth century. Before the formulation of the legality principle, written statutes already played a significant role in the criminal law in many parts of the Western world. The articles of the volume, written by the foremost experts on comparative legal history, demonstrate that the attitudes and practices toward written statutes as sources of criminal law varied greatly from one region to another. In most parts of the European continent judicial arbitration was carefully defined in legal scholarship (Italy, France), whereas in some regions written law played an important role from early on (Sweden). Although the nineteenth century was fundamental in shaping the legality principle, in some countries its breakthrough remained even then far from complete (Russia, the United States).

BOOK: Sumalla on Historical Memory and Criminal Justice in Spain:

Historical Memory and Criminal Justice in SpainIntersentia has published Josep M Tamarit Sumalla’s Historical Memory and Criminal Justice in Spain: A Case of Late Transitional Justice. The abstract reads:

The Spanish transition from the Franco regime to democracy has not been a very popular subject amongst researchers examining transitional justice at the international level. However, Spain presents certain peculiarities that make it an interesting case in which to explore comparative law and sociology. It has sometimes been seen as a model of peaceful transition, but has also been labelled as an example of an “amnesic” transition to a democratic system in which victims’ rights, justice and truth were forgotten. In contrast to other transitions, demands of justice were not expressed during what was the purely transitional period, but they have been on the increase since then. That is why, in this case, we can speak of “post-transitional justice” or, more properly, of “late transitional justice”.


This book analyses, above all, the laws, policies and judicial decisions adopted in Spain that were related to the construction of the past and could therefore be understood as measures of transitional justice. By comparing this experience with transitional decisions adopted in other countries, the book highlights the main features of the Spanish case and the lessons that can be learned from it. Measures adopted during the transitional period, such as the amnesty and subsequent decisions aimed at giving some kind of partial reparation to the victims of the repression, are here studied. Demands for reviewing the past, the 2007 Historical Memory Act, and the controversial use of criminal justice are also considered. Criminal Law is hardly applicable to the facts of the past, but the purely amnesic option can no longer be defended. Therefore, the author proposes a plan of action including different measures, such as the creation of a commission of memory, which would be in charge of investigating not only violent crimes or torture, but also other related crimes, including child abduction and politically motivated unlawful adoptions and those perpetrated in a systematic way during the Dictatorship. A victim-centred approach requires ensuring that each victim has the right to be considered on the basis of his or her own suffering, needs and rights and not as a member of a large group.

NOTICE: What is DIREL

The DIREL (Centro studi "Diritto, Religioni e Letterature") comprises two strictly connected sections: the first one is focused on legal-historical research, the second one on legal-philosophical issues. Both researches are carried on together with persons of letters and theologians, with particular attention to historical-rethorical and semiotic-linguistic research.
The center, as part of the Osservatorio sull’Antropologia della Libertà (ALI) of the associazione Polis, is the Turin based "headquarter" of the ISLL network (Italian Society for Law and  Literature). It is rooted in the CIRCE (Centro di Ricerche sulla comunicazione dell’Università di Torino) and joins both the CERMEG (Centro di Metodologia dell’Università di Trento) and the RES Center (Regolazione, Etica e Società, Università del Piemonte Orientale), actively collaborating with the Rivista di Storia e Letteratura Religiosa (Leo Olschki), the on-line Journal TCRS (Teoria Critica della Regolazione Sociale, Università di Catania) and the collection "Antropologia della Libertà" (Mimesis).
The Center organizes conferences, workshops and research projects and helps in the organization of the Summer Schools in Legal History and Legal Philosophy of the Law Faculty of the University of Turin, which take place in Italy as well as in other countries. The first Summer School will take place in Torre Pellice during the month of August 2014, the second one in France in 2015.
