Some Private International Law Issues

The Draft CESL is not only intended to cover intra-European transactions, but will also be applicable to contracts linked to third countries. This twofold effect raises interesting legal questions that are going to be analysed in this chapter from the perspective of Private International Law.
Ethics in Legal Research
2023
The essay grapples with one of the most controversial issues about legal research, namely its complex ethical and methodological dimension—here argued to be comparative—assessing the high scientific value of studying law. After clarifying what differentiates such a field of research from other natural and social studies, the authors address the presence of secondary interests and the need to use personal data for scientific purposes, as relevant situations which could undermine the reliability of any legal research or allow its thoroughness at the risk of interfering with human rights. The adherence to a rigorous and effective method in investigating national and foreign law, and the compli…

Los derechos sucesorios del viudo en Vizcaya y Ayala (II)
2012
Dentro de la pluralidad de legislaciones civiles que conviven en España, el modelo vasco se convierte en paradigma de la idea, defendida doctrinalmente, de que en aquellos sistemas en los que el régimen económico matrimonial es el de separación de bienes, suelen concederse amplios derechos sucesorios al viudo, mientras que, en aquellos que parten de un sistema de comunidad, los derechos mortis causa que se le conceden o no existen, o son mínimos, puesto que la protección a su posible situación de desvalimiento se obtiene ya a través del régimen económico matrimonial. Éste es el caso del País Vasco, donde rige un sistema legal de comunidad como es el de comunicación foral de bienes. La exist…

The Liberal State and Criminal Law Reform in Spain
2010
Throughout the nineteenth century, European legal science experienced a profound transformation, the consequences of which are still relevant today1. It would be a mistake to suppose, however, that all the legal reforms that took place in Europe in the nineteenth century, originated and developed from nothing. The roots of this process of transformation can already be seen in the sixteenth, seventeenth and especially in the eighteenth century, and the course of the European Enlightenment.

2020
El libro que acaba de publicar la profesora SERRA es de los que pueden inducir a confusión por su título sugerente, aunque he de decir que una obra de Galbraith que escogí por entender mal el título es una de las que más influencia han tenido en mis reflexiones posteriores. No es la autora la que yerra en el título, que responde perfectamente al desarrollo de sus capítulos, sino las circunstancias sobrevenidas no solo en nuestro país sino en el mundo entero las que nos hacen caer en el error de creer que vamos a reflexionar sobre la presente (y por ello apremiante) situación de pandemia aunque, sin embargo, la autora aclara perfectamente en el subtítulo que va a centrarse en la lucha antite…
