The Revision of Canon Law: Theological Implications Thomas J
THE REVISION OF CANON LAW: THEOLOGICAL IMPLICATIONS THOMAS J. GREEN The Catholic University of America HE SECOND Vatican Council profoundly desired to bring the Church Tup to date (aggiornamento) and make it a more vital instrument of God's saving presence in a rapidly changing world. Crucial to the revital- ization of the Church's mission was the reform of its institutional struc tures. Understandably, then, a significant aspect of postconciliar reform has been an unprecedented effort to reform canon law. Indeed, the time- honored relationship between total ecclesial renewal and canonical reform was recognized by Pope John XXIII in his calling for the revision of canon law as early as January 1959, when he announced the forthcoming Second Vatican Council.1 Two decades have elapsed since that initial call for canonical reform, and the process of revising the Code of Canon Law (henceforth Code) seems to have reached a critical stage. A consideration of some key moments in that process should help one gain a better perspective on the present status of canonical reform.2 The Pontifical Commission for the Revision of the Code of Canon Law (henceforth Code Commission) was established by John XXIII on March 20, 1963.3 However, it began to function only after the Council, since a principal aspect of its mandate was to reform the Code in light of conciliar principles. Only then could the Code be an instrument finely adapted to the Church's life and mission.4 On November 20, 1965 Pope Paul VI 1 See AAS 51 (1959) 65-69. See also J.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Louisiana Law Review by an authorized editor of LSU Law Digital Commons. For more information, please contact [email protected]. PRINCIPAL FEATURES AND METHODS OF CODIFICATION Jean Louis Bergel* In its broadest sense, a code is a compendium of laws, a body or corpus of legal provisions relating to a particular matter. It is, more specifically, "a collection of laws or regulations gathered under one whole corpus, containing a more or less complete system of rules on one of several legal matters. It is the product of the 'esprit de methode' applied to legislation.", A code is then characterized by two fundamental functions: it gathers 2 together written rules of law and it regulates different fields of law. As a result, codification is both the action which consists of putting together legal dispositions, whether statutory or regulatory, into one organized system and the by-product of that same action. The phenom- enon of codification began in ancient times. Hammurabi's Code, in Babylon, dates back to about 1700 B.C.

A Tentative Codification of the Old Testament Laws
YALE LAW JOURNAL. A TENTATIVE CODIFICATION OF THE OLD TESTAMENT LAWS. The Old Testament laws in their present form are a confusing labyrinth in which the modern reader who dares to enter is quick- ly lost. Civil, criminal, constitutional, humane and ceremonial regulations are mingled together with only an occasional attempt at systematic classification. Primitive and very late laws are also grouped together without distinction, so that it is almost impossible to trace the historical development of a given institution. The in- evitable result is that this large and exceedingly important legal lit- erature is practically a terra incognita to most -students of law and religion. The prevailing confusion is primarily due to the fact that these laws come from the East, where systematic arrangement is the exception rather than the rule. The -successive re-editing of the Old Testament books in which they are found has also increased the disorder. It is perfectly obvious, therefore, that before the Old Testament laws can be intelligently read and utilized by mod- em western readers, they must be systematically codified, (i) logi- cally, according to subject matter, and (2) chronologically, within each group. so that the enactments and usages of successive peri- ods can be studied in their true historical order. The work of logical, scientific classification is here especially difficult, since the Old Testament laws in their origin, character and aims, are fundamentally different from the codes with which we are to-day familiar. In many cases the Israelitish laws do not fit into any of the modern systems cf codification, all of which are derived from Roman sources.

Notes on Design and Suggested Use of the Schedules
NOTES ON DESIGN AND SUGGESTED USE OF THE SCHEDULES In developing the first set of religious law classification schedules, KBR (History of Canon Law) and KBU (Law of the Roman Catholic Church. The Holy See), three principal tasks had to be accomplished: first, to carry out the mandates of the Advisory Committee on Library of Congress Law Classification which represents large outside LC user groups or cooperating institutions, without compromising LC’s own interests; secondly, to bring the new classes in harmony with the now century-old and widely used Library of Congress Classification (LCC) which already governs large collections, in particular the classes BR (Christianity), BX (Christian denominations), and BV (Practical Theology); and last, to develop Class KBR as a parallel class to KJA (Roman law), a subdivision of the LC subject classification for the Law of Europe, which served as the pattern for the civil law tables now applied to all civil law jurisdictions of the world, as represented in the LC Law Classification. 1. Applied classificatory techniques. Comparative classification patterns In principle, parallel classification, a technique tested in the most recent classification developments, was employed (1) to relate class numbers in the new schedules to number ranges in such areas of schedules BR, BX and KJA for careful recovery of materials from these older classes to which thy were referred by past practice without corrupting those classes , and (2) to provide a vehicle for local collection decisions in distribution of large sets of partially historic materials between the two new classes KBR and KBU. Therefore, the design of the new schedules had to relate to, or to correlate, content and number structure to the older schedules as much as possible, aided by extensive references.

"Codification and the Rule of Law," Remarks by Dick Thornburgh
·CODIFICATION AND THE RULE OF LAW· REMARKS BY DICK THORNBURGH ATTORNEY GENERAL OF THE UNITED STATES BEFORE THE CONFERENCE ON CRIMINAL CODE REFORM; A CONFERENCE OF THE SOCIETY FOR THE REFORM OF THE CRIMINAL LAW WASHINGTON, D.C. 1:00 P.M. MONDAY JANUARY 22, 1990 Jeremy Bentham, perhaps the foremost law reformer of the 18th and 19th centuries, was himself once presented with a proposal for refo~. He is purported to replied: -Reform, sir? reform! Don't talk to me of reform; things are bad enough as they are. Well, here we are again, talking reform, as things go from -bad enough- to worse in the court overload of criminal cases. We are in the midst of a worldwide epidemic of drug-related crime. Yet we are still caught up in the ad-hockery of revising the criminal law, one statute at a time. Frankly, we need to face up to our far greater professional responsibility, and show a collective determination to undertake reform of the criminal law at the quintessential level -- codification. Codification efforts, admittedly, do take time. The push to codify the federal criminal laws in the united states has now been underway for almost 25 years. A similar effort in Japan has been underway for 35 years. The French penal law reached a milestone with the introduction of an entire new code last year. It has been underway in a sporadic fashion for approximately 100 years. Codification of the criminal law of England -- a prospect brightened by the introduction of a complete criminal code last May -- was begun by then Attorney General Francis Bacon 375 years ago.

The American Codification Movement, a Study of Antebellum Legal Reform
BOOK REVIEW THE AMERICAN CODIFICATION MOVEMENT, A STUDY OF ANTEBELLUM LEGAL REFORM. By Charles M. Cook. Westport, Conn.: Greenwood Press, 1981. Pp. 234. $35.00. Reviewed by Robert W. Gordon* I. INTRODUCTION Between 1820 and 1850 American legal commentators became obsessed with whether legislatures should codify, either in whole or in part, the common law of the American states. Indeed, "[a]lmost every law writer after 1825 felt compelled to include his views [on codification] in his works of whatever sort."" The enormous litera- ture2 that emerged from this period survives today to fascinate mod- ern legal historians, who seem to have developed their own obsession for the "codification" issue. As Lawrence Friedman has said, "The codification movement is one of the set pieces of American legal his- tory."' Charles M. Cook's The American Codification Movement: A Study of Antebellum Legal Reform is the first comprehensive study of this period of legal debate. As Cook's title, The American CodificationMovement, suggests, modern historians have turned the debates over codification into a "movement"V-some sort of groundswell of popular and professional opinion and political action aimed at codifying the law-resisted by a countermovement to preserve the common law. According to that view the conflicting movements ultimately compromised in the pas- sage of New York's "Field Code" of Civil Procedure,4 which repre- * Professor of Law, University of Wisconsin.
