Some conclusions 468 Index 473 Free ebooks ==> www.ebook777.com Preface The law of succession is out of fashion. Neglected, often, at a national level, it has been neglected still more as a subject for comparative study. Yet it is one of the most interesting, and certainly one of the most practically important, areas of private law. In 2007 we assembled and edited a collection of essays under the title Exploring the Law of Succession: Studies National, Historical and Comparative (Edinburgh University Press). Encouraged by the reception of that book, we have now embarked on a long-term programme to explore selected topics in the law of succession from a historical and comparative perspective. This volume is thus the first in a projected series on Comparative Succession Law. In this book we consider the formalities which the law imposes for testamentary disposals of property. Our presupposition is that every system has as its point of departure the principle of freedom of testation; in other words, a person has the freedom to determine the destiny of his or her assets. But for that to be accomplished, a legal instrument or instruments must be available so that assets can be passed on to the chosen beneficiaries. What, we ask, are the will-types available in different legal systems? How widely are they used? What are the advantages and disadvantages of each? How can requirements of form be explained and justified? Where did the law come from and how did it develop? And what might the future hold? It has been necessary to be selective as to jurisdictions, and we have chosen to focus on Europe, and on countries which have been influenced by the European experi- ence. Thus, in addition to giving a detailed treatment of the law in Austria, Belgium, England and Wales, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland, and Spain, the book also explores legal developments in Australia, New Zealand, the United States of America, and in some of the countries of Latin America, with a particular emphasis on Brazil. Two of the mixed jurisdictions – Scotland and South Africa – are included for their insights in an area of law where the division between the common law and civil law seems particularly firmly entrenched.

  • Caregiving and the Case for Testamentary Freedom
    Caregiving and the Case for Testamentary Freedom Joshua C. Tate* Almost all U.S. states allow individuals to disinherit their descendants for any reason or no reason, but most of the world’s legal systems currently do not. This Article contends that broad freedom of testation under state law is defensible because it allows elderly people to reward family members who are caregivers. The Article explores the common-law origins of freedom of testation, which developed in the shadow of the medieval rule of primogeniture, a doctrine of no contemporary relevance. The growing problem of eldercare, however, offers a justification for the twenty-first century. Increases in life expectancy have led to a sharp rise in the number of older individuals who require long-term care, and some children and grandchildren are bearing more of the caregiving burden * Assistant Professor of Law, Southern Methodist University.

  • Institute of European and Comparative Law Annual Report for 2014-2015
    Institute of European and Comparative Law Annual Report for 2014-2015 For further information please contact: The Administrator Institute of European and Comparative Law St Cross Building St Cross Road Oxford OX1 3UL [email protected] www.iecl.ox.ac.uk Introduction The academic year 2014-15 culminated with the Institute’s anniversary celebrations in late September. From its modest beginnings in 1995 the Institute has seen continuous growth over the past decades. It has established and nurtured numerous links with our continental partners, with regard to both teaching and research. Today, the Institute facilitates many of the Faculty’s research activities in European and comparative law, inter alia by organising the relevant lunchtime Discussion Groups and a raft of international conferences. Its particular focus is on the intersection of European and comparative law. This is particularly visible in the Institute’s book series published by Hart Publishing, the Studies of the Oxford Institute of European and Comparative Law, which will see the publication of its 20th volume later this year. A flavour of the topics that are on our research agenda is conveyed by the list of our most important events during the past academic year on p.28 below. The Institute promotes the Faculty’s teaching agenda by administering its undergraduate exchange programme, the largest of its kind in this country. The ‘Law with Law Studies in Europe’ degree (informally known as ‘Course 2’) sees 35 of our BA students take their third year away from Oxford, spending it at one of our European partner faculties in France, Germany, Italy, Spain or The Netherlands.

That is to say, we may have more than one home or spend significant amounts of time in more than one country. There can be nothing more sublime than to immerse oneself in a foreign culture, converse in a different language than one’s own native tongue, and open the mind to ways of thinking that may even be anathema to the values instilled in us from our very first years. One can only benefit. But what if you were someone like Douglas Raines Tompkins, founder of The North Face and Esprit apparel companies, and adventurist-turned- philanthropist? When Tompkins sold his companies, which he founded in San Francisco, California, where he lived most of his life, he committed to donating his entire wealth to land conservation and wildlife preservation.1 Tompkins acquired millions of acres of land in Chile and Argentina and made grand bargains with the governments of those nations: he offered to donate his land to the governments as long as they too contributed land, and agreed to dedicate the entirety of those lands for national parks and wildlife preserves.
