Description
Codes and Customs: Millennial Perspectives is a multifaceted collection of essays which trace the development of selected topics, such as: Justice, Punishment, Marketplace, Worldmaking, Contract, Illegality vs Legality, Ritual, Cooperation in Community, Codification in Italian Law, Jewish Law, and Legal Cultures. These topics are comprehensively developed in the subsequent books of this series, but here the various ideas that have evolved over the past thousand years are interrelated. In addition to the several ideas that are to be the focal topics of future volumes, several related concepts, including the possibility of law/environment, enhance th book's richness.
