Benton Elbert J.
International Law and Diplomacy of the Spanish-American War
2006. ISBN-13: 9781584776659; ISBN-10: 158477665X. Benton Elbert J. International Law and Diplomacy of the Spanish-American War. Originally published: Baltimore: The Johns Hopkins Press 1908. 300 pp. Reprinted 2006 by The Lawbook Exchange Ltd. ISBN-13: 9781584776659. ISBN-10: 158477665X. Hardcover. New. $29.95 This is a most curious work as it offers an analysis that now seems frozen in amber. Drawing on the example of Le Fur's Etude sur la Guerre Hispano-Americaine de 1898 Envisagee au Point de Vue du Droit International Public 1899 and similar studies Benton set out to provide an exploration of Spanish-American relations prior to and during the war. This work is critical but it leans heavily toward a pro-American point of view. He concludes for instance that American military and diplomatic objectives were achieved to varying degrees that at the end of the conflict Cuba was granted complete sovereignty and that the treaty of peace was fulfilled. Most curiously for the modern scholar he ends with the recognition that "the occasion of the recent intervention provided for in the Platt Amendment is outside the scope of this work" 291. Benton was a professor of History at Western Reserve University. unknown books

Beale Joseph H. translator
Bartolus on the Conflict of Laws
2003. ISBN-13: 9781584772941; ISBN-10: 1584772948. Beale Joseph Henry. Bartolus on the Conflict of Laws. Translated into English by Joseph Henry Beale. Originally published: Cambridge: Harvard University Press 1914. 86 pp. Reprinted 2003 by The Lawbook Exchange Ltd. ISBN-13: 9781584772941; ISBN-10: 1584772948. Hardcover. New. $65. Probably the first doctrine on the conflict of laws this is a portion of Bartolus' commentary on Justinian's Code and its glosses his Super Primam et Secundam Partem Codicis Commentaria. Copied often in manuscript it appeared in print in 1471. It takes into account local customs and statutes and contains what may be the first clear recognition of the principle that the lex loci governs the validity of a legal act. Bartolus also appreciated the distinction between laws effective only within the territory and laws that might have operation outside the territory a distinction that assumed great importance in later continental writings on the subject. One of the great medieval commentators Bartolus di Sassoferrato 1313-1357 was a professor of law at the University of Perugia. His authority as an expositor of Roman law was immense and it endured for centuries. A practical lawyer Bartolus attempted to derive principles suitable to his time from the accumulated layers of local feudal and Roman law. unknown books

For Tiedeman the fundamental issue is the need to control these groups in the interests of public order while preserving their rights of self-determination as guaranteed by the Constitution.

ISBN-13: 9781584770015; ISBN-10: 1584770015. Hardcover. New. $49.95 The landmark work that introduced the revolutionary idea of the "case system" to legal education which Langdell 1826-1906 instituted in his position as Dean at Harvard law School. A response to the European educational practice of the expository textbook as the basis of study Langdell invented herein the use of original authorities to teach legal principles in his classes at Harvard. He posted lists of leading cases on the bulletin boards or announced them in class beforehand. The students prepared for class by going to the library taking down the reports and studying them. The process was both injurious to the library collection and inconvenient for the students. It was very soon apparent to Langdell that having done away with the traditional textbook the law library was not a satisfactory alternative. No library had or could afford the number of duplicate volumes of the court reports that were required so that all students could have easy and equal access to the cases. Langdell's solution was the casebook. This innovation in legal education publishing led to the proliferation of casebooks that continue today. Walker Oxford Companion to Law 714.

Published after the Glorious Revolution of 1688 brought William of Orange and Mary to the throne but written in the throes of the Whig revolutionary plots against Charles II in the early 1680s John Locke offers a theory of natural law and natural rights which distinguish between legitimate and illegitimate civil governments and argues for the legitimacy of revolt against tyrannical governments. These radical ideas remain influential today. In these two treatises the political philosopher John Locke espouses radical theories which influenced the ideologies of the American and French revolutions and became the basis for the social and political philosophies of Rousseau Voltaire and the United States founding fathers. In the first treatise Locke aims to refute the doctrine of the patriarchal and absolute right of the Divine Right of Kings doctrine put forth by Sir Robert Filmer's Patriarcha. He examines key Biblical passages to prove that scripture does not support Filmer's premise. The second treatise offers Locke's positive theory of government in which he establishes a theory which reconciles the liberty of the citizen with political order. His basic premise is founded on the independence of the individual. He declares that men are born free and equal in their rights and that wealth is the product of labor. In his revolutionary theory of the social contract he proposes that a legitimate civil government must preserve the rights to life liberty health and property of its citizens and prosecute and punish those in violation of those rights. JOHN LOCKE 1632-1704 a leading philosopher of the Enlightenment is widely considered to be the father of liberalism. He was initially trained as a physician receiving a doctorate in medicine at Oxford. He. unknown books

2016. ISBN-13: 97Spai4772453; ISBN-10: 158477245X. Walton Clifford Stevens. The Civil Law in Spain and Spanish America. Including Cuba Puerto Rico and Philippine Islands and the Spanish Civil Code in force annotated and with references to the Civil Codes of Mexico Central and South America With A History of all the Spanish Codes and Summary of Canonical Laws of the Principal Fueros Ordenamientos Councils and Ordenanzas of Spain from the Earliest Times to the Twentieth Century including the Spanish Mexican Cuban and Puerto Rican Autonomical Constitutions and a History of the Laws of the Indies. Originally published: Washington D.C.: W.H. Lowdermilk & Co. 1900. xix 672 pp. Reprinted 2003 2016 by The Lawbook Exchange Ltd. ISBN-13: 9781584772453; ISBN-10: 158477245X. Hardcover. New. $49.95 Spain has an extraordinarily rich legal history one that reflects Roman Gothic Arabic Papal Holy Roman and French influences. It is equally notable for its innovative and progressive nature. It was the first nation to produce a published commercial code. Aragon possessed and exercised a writ of habeas corpus during the medieval era. Medieval Spanish law witnessed the invention of democratic principles that would form the basis of the Republic of Iceland Magna Carta and the American Declaration of Independence. And as the first great colonial power Spain exported its legal ideas to the New World. This had a profound influence on the history of most Latin American nations and the Philippines. The study of Spanish and Spanish-influenced law has much to offer the student of legal history. Walton facilitates this study through lucid historical introductions notes and translations of rare source materials. unknown books

2004. ISBN-13: 9781584774556; ISBN-10: 158477455X. Gardner Daniel. A Treatise on International Law and a Short Explanation of the Jurisdiction and Duty of the Republic of the United States. Originally published: Troy: From the Press of N. Tuttle 1844. xii 13-315 pp. Reprinted 2004 by The Lawbook Exchange Ltd. ISBN-13: 9781584774556; ISBN-10: 158477455X. Hardcover. New. $95. Gardner 1799-1863 was an attorney who practiced in Troy New York and a local politician who held several minor municipal offices in that city. The first part of this remarkable work argues that international law needs to return to its roots in natural law revealed in Scripture. Two major prejudices are embedded in this argument: the United States has done this and Great Britain will not choosing instead to dominate the oceans through force. The brief second part addresses the "internal jurisdiction of our national government over the states the people of the United States and the Indian tribes possessing a portion of our territory" 269. It dispenses with the theological model of the first section to offer an outline of Federal powers as defined by constitutional law. His analysis of slavery is interesting.
