O presente trabalho investiga o processo de desenvolvimento do Direito Hipotecário brasileiro, na transição da ausência à consolidação de seu registro público, verificando-se, sobretudo o papel do Código Civil de 1916. A análise histórica dos Direitos Reais é uma importante fonte para a compreensão do desenvolvimento das relações entre pessoas e coisas. Nesse sentido, o estudo histórico da hipoteca no Direito brasileiro permite um exame do embate entre os direitos de propriedade e os direitos de crédito, tornando evidentes elementos sociais, econômicos, da política fundiária e da cultura jurídica do período. Inicialmente, explanou-se sobre o ideário de modernização dos Direito reais, que garantiu a proteção da titularidade individual sobre a propriedade, e sua repercussão no Direito nacional no projeto de modernização do Direito, implementado após a Independência, em 1822. Posteriormente, foram perquiridas as alterações legislativas empreendidas até o Código Civil de 1916, que passaram a prever a publicidade e a especialidade da hipoteca. Por fim, foram efetuadas comparações de dados jurisprudenciais, referentes ao período entre anos de 1912 e 1920. / This text investigates the process of development of the Brazilian Mortgage Law in the transition of its complete lack of registration and the consolidation of its public record, verifying mainly the role of the Civil Code of 1916. The historical analysis of the Property Law is an important source for understanding the development of the relationship between people and things. In this sense, the mortgage history in Brazilian law allows an examination of the conflict between the rights of property and the creditor rights, bringing to light social, economic, land policy and legal culture elements of the period. First, the ideology of modernization of the property rights was explained, which guaranteed the protection of the individual ownership of property, and its impact on national law in the modernization project implemented after independence in 1822. Subsequently, legislative changes undertaken until the Civil Code of 1916 were studied, which begin to provide publicity and specialty to mortgage rights. Finally, comparisons were made between case law data, developed over the years 1912 and 1920.

Progres of Criminal Law in 18th Century in Our Countries Abstract This thesis attempts to show certain aspects of the progress of the criminal law in the 18th century in the Czech Crown Lands. It mainly focuses on substantive criminal law and captures its evolution by comparison of selected instruments of law contained in analyzed criminal codes, which are sorted in chronological order. The thesis is composed of an introductory, three chapters and a conclusions. The introduction briefly defines topic and basic terminology used in this thesis and also mentions existing literature. The chapter one is subdivided into three parts. The first part deals with the state of the sources of criminal law at the begining of 18th century and than mainly focuses on the codification of the municipal law and also on The Renewed Constitution. Next part of the chapter is aimed at the criminal code of Joseph I and at the criminal code of Maria Theresa, which were published in the 18th century. The last part concentrates on two more criminal codes, namely criminal code of Joseph II and also criminal code of Francis II, both being influenced by the philosophy of the age of enlightenment, while the later being published in the 19th century. The second chapter delivers a summary of selected instruments of substantive criminal law....

This study analyzes the evolution of the regime governing private international trade law from its inception in the eleventh century through to its modern formulation in the twentieth century. It also seeks to explain its development by focusing on three theories of international relations. The regime is defined in terms of its substantive and procedural dimensions. The nature and strength of the norms governing the substantive dimension (prices, liability for defective goods, allocation of transport costs, insurance, and financial and credit arrangements) and the procedural dimension (locus of regulation, methodology of rule creation, and dispute settlement) are analyzed over three historical phases. These three periods are the medieval period, from the eleventh to the sixteenth centuries, the early modern period, from the seventeenth to the nineteenth centuries, and the modern period in the twentieth century. The regime norms are found to exhibit significant continuity over time, although there has been considerable variation in the rules. The strength of the regime has also varied over the three phases. Three theoretical perspectives (structural realism, functionalism, and sociological analysis) are evaluated for their relative ability to explain the origin, evolution, nature, and strength of the regime. Each perspective is found to offer important insights, but a synthesis of approaches is necessary to capture the complexity and richness of the regime's evolution. Structural realism does not account for the origin of the regime and is of limited assistance in explaining the strength of voluntary standards. It does, however, explain the influence that states' concerns for political/legal autonomy have had on the regime and offers a reasonably good account of the roles that the United States and the United Kingdom have played in the evolution of the regime. Sociological analysis assists in accounting for the origin and nature of the regime, but it does not provide a comprehensive theory of cooperation. Reference to the other approaches is required as a supplement to sociological analysis. Functionalism provides the best explanation of the origin and nature of the regime. However, it is unable to account for variations in the strength of the regime over the three historical periods. Reference to the influence of changing structures of political authority and to the ideas, knowledge, and values of the major commercial actors is necessary as a supplement to functional analysis. / Arts, Faculty of / Political Science, Department of / Graduate

As obras dedicadas à história do direito do trabalho costumam dar pouca atenção à fase anterior à Consolidação das Leis do Trabalho, em especial à chamada fase ministerial (ou administrativa) da Justiça do Trabalho. O objetivo da presente dissertação é produzir, por meio da análise de processos submetidos ao Conselho Nacional do Trabalho, um retrato do funcionamento do sistema burocrático de distribuição de justiça em matéria trabalhista e previdenciária montado na estrutura do Poder Executivo, mais especificamente no Ministério do Trabalho, Indústria e Comércio, especialmente entre 1934 e 1946, quando o Conselho Nacional do Trabalho passou a exercer função propriamente judicante. Para isso, buscou-se desvendar o desenho institucional do Conselho Nacional do Trabalho, a atuação dos conselheiros, as fontes doutrinárias a que recorriam, os personagens que gravitavam no seu entorno, todos dedicados ao manejo do sistema criado, de modo a observar como o aparato burocrático composto pelo Conselho Nacional do Trabalho (e demais órgãos a ele vinculados) construiu as primeiras soluções jurídicas para o reconhecimento e o enforcement dos direitos sociais no Brasil, em especial os de índole trabalhista e previdenciária. A colocação em movimento dos direitos sociais pelo CNT, pela doutrina e pelos demais atores relevantes mostram uma atuação efetiva dos órgãos de distribuição de justiça trabalhista, com elevada demanda pelos serviços por parte dos trabalhadores, que souberam articular um discurso fortemente impregnado da linguagem da legalidade para fazer valer suas pretensões. As construções das soluções dos casos são as mais variadas, ora com remessa ao texto legal ora buscando os institutos propagados como fundamentais no arcabouço do novo direito, tais como equidade, espírito da lei e vontade do legislador. / Labor law history studies do not usually focus attention to the period preceding the Consolidation of Brazilian Labor Laws, in particular to the so-called ministerial (or administrative) period. This essay intends to produce, by means of the analysis of labor claims submitted to the National Labor Commission, a portrait of the bureaucratic system of labor and social security justice in operation inside the structure of the Executive Branch, specially between 1934 and 1946, when the Commission started to perform its judicative legal attribution. For this purpose, we presented the National Labor Commissions institutional design, the commissioners actions, the doctrine sources consulted, the players surrounding it, all of them dedicated to manage the created system, in order to build the first legal solutions aimed at recognizing and enforcing social rights in Brazil, specially labor and social security rights. The setting in motion of the social rights by the NLC, by the doctrine and by other relevant players shows an effective action of the bodies of labor justice administration and workers high demand for its services. We also show the workers ability to articulate a discourse strongly pervaded by the rule of law jargon in order to enforce their rights. The solutions for the cases vary, sometimes containing a reference to the legal text and in other circumstances using legal institutions fundamentally related to the new law, such as fairness, spitit of the law and will of the legislator.

Iudicet iudicarive iubeat. Reflexões sobre os origens do processo civil romano e as causas da bipartição. Depois da introdução, o segundo capítulo analisa os aspectos da história constitucional da Monarquia e início da República, sobretudo as críticas à historiografia tradicional no tocante à passagem de um regime ao outro, além de estudar a religião romana arcaica. O terceiro capítulo busca elementos da administração da justiça no direito comparado (babilônico, gregos e germânicos), enquanto que o quarto analisa o início do processo criminal romano. O quinto capítulo, por sua vez, investiga as várias teorias acerca do início do processo civil, como da arbitragem, defesa privada, Volksjustiz etc. O sexto capítulo trata das várias teorias da bipartição, procurando estabelecer se teve caráter originário no processo civil romano e suas causas. O sétimo capítulo analisa as legis actiones mais antigas (legis actio sacramento, legis actio per manus iniectionem e legis actio per iudicis arbitrive postulationem). O oitavo capítulo tenta verificar o conteúdo da iurisdictio romana e suas relações com o imperium, enquanto que o capítulo nono trata das figuras do iudex e do arbiter. O décimo capítulo apresenta as críticas às teorias expostas, formulando hipótese acerca do surgimento do processo civil romano por meio de resolução das controvérsias no âmbito da comunidade anteriormente à formação da civitas com base em cultura e religião comuns, razão por que a presente tese propõe a adoção do termo justiça comunitária pré-cívica para qualificar esse sistema, propugnando pelo abandono das expressões autotutela/justiça privada e Volksjustiz por serem ambas portadoras de equívocos. No tocante à bipartição, a presente tese considera verossímil sua consolidação na época da Lei das XII Tábuas em razão sobretudo do fenômeno da dessacralização do processo / Iudicet iudicarive iubeat. Remarks on the origins of the Roman civil procedure and the causes of its dual mode. After the introduction, the second chapter analyses some aspects of constitucional history of Monarchy and the beginning of Republic, mainly the critics against the tradicional historiography concerning the transition from the first to the latter and it also studies the ancient Roman religion. The third chapter seeks elements from the administration of justice in comparative law (Babylonic, Greeks and Germanics), while the forth one analyses the beginning of the criminal persecution in Rome. The fifth chapter investigates the theories about the beginning of civil litigation, such as arbitration, self help, Volksjustiz etc. The sixth chapter deals with the dual mode procedure theories, trying to set if is had an original character and its causes. The seventh chapter analyses the most ancient legis actiones (legis actio sacramento, legis actio per manus iniectionem e legis actio per iudicis arbitrive postulationem). The eighth chapter tries to verify the content of the Roman iurisdictio and its relationships with imperium, while the nineth chapter deals with the figures of iudex and arbiter. The last chapter presents the critics to the analysed theories and formulates a hypothesis about the beginning ot the Roman civil procedure through the disputes settlement inside the community before the creation of civitas basing on common culture and religion. Thus, the thesis proposes the adoption of the term justiça comunitária pré-cívica (precivic community justice) in order to qualify this system, refusing the expressions self help, private justice and Volksjustiz, who are dubious. Regarding the dual mode, the thesis sustains it is plausible that it had already benn consolidated by the time of the Twelve Tables Law according mainly to the dessacralization of process.

In Mabo v. State of Queensland (No. 2) (1992) 175 C.L.R. 1, the majority of the High Court held that ???native title??? had survived the acquisition of sovereignty over the Australian continent and is ???recognised??? by the common law. However, all the judgments failed to articulate clearly either the nature of native title as a legal form, and the relationship of that legal form to the common law, or what is meant by ???recognition???. Twelve years later the High Court has still not provided a satisfactory understanding of any of these matters. The central problem investigated by this thesis is the nature of that relationship and of the legal interest of native title. It is contended that this relationship can be understood and ordered as a matter of jurisdiction. This thesis seeks to recuperate a substantive concept of jurisdiction, and specifically of a particular jurisdiction, that of the common law, and to demonstrate how the interest of native title results from the jurisdictional relationship between common law and indigenous law. Part I is a genealogy of native title, drawn out through a history of ideas about common law jurisdiction. It is an account of the legal practice of jurisdiction, through a conceptual elaboration of a particular jurisdiction: the common law. This part traces the history of the common law from its origins in a pluralistic, fragmented, jurisdictional landscape, to its current position as the ???law of the land???. It considers the traditional mechanisms and techniques through which the common law has ordered its relationships with other jurisdictions, and how it has appropriated matters traditionally within the purview of other jurisdictions, accommodating them within the common law as ???custom???. The thesis demonstrates that the same gestures and practices can be seen in modern native title decisions, and contends that the ordering which underpins both native title, and the Australian legal system, is jurisdictional. Part II examines the practice of jurisdiction through an examination of three technologies of jurisdiction, all of which contributed to the construction of the legal entity of native title as an act of jurisdiction: mapping, accommodation and categorisation.
