    ADELSSTATUUT EN ADELSBOEKJES IN EUROPA VANAF 1800 0. Schutte Ädelsgeschiedenis kent twee aspecten: de regels die in een bepaald land in een bepaalde tijd aan het instituut adel als zodanig ten grondslag liggen, het adelsstatuut, en de personele invulling ervan, die men onder meer terugvindt in adelsboekjes.We verstaan daaronder seriewerken betreffende een bepaald land, waarin meestal alfabetisch gegevens vermeld staan betreffende een aantal adellijke families en die jaarlijks of althans met een zekere regelmaat verschijnen. In dit artikel zullen de grenzen van Europa niet overschreden worden. Immers: in andere werelddelen bestaan er wel hogere sociale klassen die om die reden met de Europese adel ver­ gelijkbaar zijn, maar het adelsstatuut is daar meestal anders en zeker is ook de registratie van een andere aard dan wij in Europa kennen, waar eigenlijk alleen nog maar op papier (of per­ kament) aangeleverde bescheiden het bewijs leveren of iemand van adel is. Onder 'adelsstatuut' verstaan we het geheel van regels, waardoor iemand van adel wordt, waar­ door de adeldom wordt doorgegeven aan het nageslacht en waardoor de adeldom eventueel teniet gaat. De vraag doet zich voor of adel een nationaal of een internationaal instituut is. Hoewel 'blauw bloed' uiteraard over de staatsgrens kan worden meegenomen, hebben alle soeverei­ ne staten in de loop van de tijd regels opgesteld betreffende adeldom. Dit kwam mede voort uit het feit dat tijdens het ancien régime aan adeldom voorrechten verbonden waren en het is logisch dat de vorst van het land waar men zich vestigde, die voorrechten niet zonder meer zou willen toestaan aan adellijke ex-onderdanen van een andere staat.

  • Wilhelmina of Holland
    WILHELMINA OF HOLLAND KEES V AN HoEK N September 6th, 1898, a fair girl of eighteen, clad in a long O white silken robe, an ermine-caped red velvet cloak em­ broidered with golden lions hanging royally from her slim shoulders, rose amidst the great of her land and the princes of her oriental empire, solemnly to swear allegiance to the Constitu­ tion of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. After eight years of minority, since the death of her father, she now became in fact what she had been in name from her tenth year: Queen in her own right. Times change. This maxim must surely be pondered now by Queen Wilhelmina of Holland, doyenne of the ruling mon­ archs of the world. For the changes which she witnessed during her reign are so sweeping that one hardly believes the evidence of one's own eyes. Revolutions chased the Kings of Portugal and Spain far from their countries. The Emperor of Germany, at the zenith of his power when she mounted her throne, has already been an exile in Holland now for half the time of her own reign; not a solitary ruler is left of that multitude of kings and grand dukes, princes and princelings, then wielding autocratic power, to-day already completely forgotten by their former subjects. The mighty Emperor Francis Joseph died, his country does not even exist any more, and there is a warrant out for the arrest of his heir. The Czar of Russia has been exterminated with his whole family. The King of Italy-of the only family which can compete with her House in age-barely holds his own by the tolerance of a popular dictator.

  • Property Law and Imperial and British Titles: the Dukes of Marlborough and the Principality of Mindelheim
    Tijdschrift voor Rechtsgeschiedenis 77 (2009) 191-210 Revue d’Histoire du Droit 77 (2009) 191-210 The Legal History Review 77 (2009) 191-210 Property law and Imperial and British titles: the Dukes of Marlborough and the Principality of Mindelheim Noel Cox* Summary The title of prince of the Holy Roman Empire was conferred in 1704 upon all the children heirs and lawful descendants, male and female, of John Churchill, the first duke of Marlborough. The title of prince of Mindelheim was granted in 1705 to all male descendants and daughters of the first duke. But following the Treaty of Utrecht in 1713 and the Treaty of Rastatt in 1714 the principality passed to Bavaria. The right of the dukes of Marlborough to use the style and title was thus lost, and any residual rights would have expired in 1722 on the death of the duke, as they could not pass to a daughter (unlike his British titles). Despite this it is still common practice to describe the Duke of Marlborough as a Prince of the Holy Roman Empire and Prince of Mindelheim. This paper considers the differences in the treatment of the descent of the British and imperial titles. Keywords Duke of Marlborough; John Churchill; Principality of Mindelheim; Principality of Mellenburg; prince of the Holy Roman Empire; peerage; statutory entail; alienation. Introduction Field Marshal Sir John Churchill, first duke of Marlborough, was one of the greatest military commanders in history. He held the office of Captain- General of the English and then British army (the late seventeenth and early eighteenth century equivalent of Commander-in-Chief of the Forces), in 1690–1691 and 1702–1711.

  • States: the Case of the Order of Malta
    Mountbatten Journal of Legal Studies The Acquisition of Sovereignty by Quasi­ States: The case of the Order of Malta Noel Cox Introduction The Sovereign Military Order of St John of Jerusalem, of Rhodes and of Malta, also known as the Order of Malta, the Order of St John of Jerusalem, or simply the Hospitallers, is a unique international confraternity. It is the only organisation currently recognised, albeit by a minority of states, as quasi-sovereign. In view of the claims which have been made from time to time by other orders of chivalry - or even pretended orders - to such status, it is worthwhile looking more closely at the claims made by or on behalf of the Order of Malta. In so doing we may help to locate the origin and nature of this so-called sovereignty, and answer the question of which orders of chivalry are likewise 'sovereign', or, indeed, whether the Order of Malta itself is truly sovereign. The article begins with a brief look at the concepts of sovereignty and statehood as traditionally understood. A survey is then made of the origins of what might be called anomalous entities - bodies which have some status at international law, but which are not traditional states. The special position of the Holy See is covered. The case of the Order of Malta is then examined in its historical context, and the basis for its claimed sovereignty assessed. The position of branches of the Order, and of other ancient religious orders is looked at. The lessons from the example of the Order of Malta for the relationship of territory and statehood are evaluated.

  • THE GERMAN COLONIES What Is to Become of Them?
    THE GERMAN COLONIES What is to Become of Them? BY , V RENE PUAUX LONDON : WIGHTMAN & Co., Ltd. t9l8 THE GERMAN COLONIES: What is to Become of Them ? AN-GERMANS who feel absolutely sure of vic­ tory—in the absence of such a conviction the P projects of annexing Antwerp, the Briey basin, etc., would be paradoxical—will not even discuss the question of whether the German colonies should be restored to their pre-war possessors. A large section of the public regards their restitu­ tion as reasonable enough. It is admitted that a prolific country like Germany needs colonial posses­ sions to take her surplus population ; and, as nobody dreams of stifling the German people when it has received its punishment, or of forbidding it to resume a normal and healthy existence, it is expected gener­ ally that the future peace treaty will include a clause exchanging the captured German colonies for Alsace- Lorraine or the freedom of Belgium. This is the normal view, seldom discussed, and never opposed. However, the problem is far less simple than it appears on the surface. In the first place, we no longer live in the times of Ruy Bias, when ' ' niggers ' ' were a kind of merchandise to be bartered for " arsenic " without the least consideration for the " niggers' " views on the matter; in the second, the opinions of the British Colonies, Dominions, Common­ wealths and Federations, whose armies conquered the colonies in question, cannot be disregarded. 4 THE GERMAN COLONIES : A short examination of the story of the German colonies, of their significance and administration, will bring one to the conclusion that the restoration of her colonies to Germany is neither necessary nor desirable.
