Th e construction of the fi nal section of fortifi cations around suburb of St Ni- cholas was preceded by a long process of fortifi cation system construction which accompanied the phases of the city’s urban growth in the thirteenth century, as well as the political, legal and social circumstances of that period. Key words: Dubrovnik, Middle Ages, fortifi cations Th e fortifi ed walls encircling Dubrovnik, the symbol of the city, were con- structed around the northern suburbs as the new walls at the end of the thir- teenth century (except for the section around the Dominican monastery). At that time, the suburbs which developed since the pre-communal period on the crags outside of the old city walls became part of the urban space (the old city encompassed a section later called the Sexteria: Castello, St. Peter and Pusti- jerna). Th e city expanded as a result of demographic and economic growth, which necessitated new the construction of new residential structures. Al- though the area of the old city atop the cliff s remained a representative zone,1 the vital core rather notably moved beyond the northern old city walls. At that time, the formation of an economic, political and clerical hub proceeded in the area below Pustijerna, in the eastern part of the burgus. Th e thirteenth century ∗ Irena Benyovsky Latin, Ph. D., Croatian Institute of History, Zagreb, Croatia 1 See: Nada Grujić, “Dubrovnik – Pustijerna. Istraživanja jednog dijela povijesnog tkiva grada”, Radovi IPU, 10 (1986): 7-39. 7 I. BENYOVSKY LATIN, Murus versus montem: Construction of the Dubrovnik fortifi cations around... brought great changes in the structure, appearance and organization of medi- eval Dubrovnik. Th e regulations enacted in the statutes of 1272 and 1296 in- troduced a considerable number of public streets to the area of the suburbs of St Blaise and St Nicholas. By the end of that century, the former suburbs had become the city’s residential and economic hub, encircled by the new northern city walls. Th is process was nonetheless complex, linked to many property- oriented, urban, political and social processes: the fi nal form of the urban space was the result of a long-term and gradual process, so that spatially diff er- ent units (typological and formational) can be discerned inside the city walls. Many planned undertakings in the city area emerged despite (or precisely because of) the natural limitations of the terrain which had to be overcome: uneven ground that was rocky at places and marshy at others. Dubrovnik’s (northern) hinterland was very important to the city’s eco- nomic growth. In the twelft h century the city established sound commercial ties not only with the Italian cities, for it also concluded its fi rst treaties and privileges with the powers in its eastern hinterland, Bosnia and Serbia. Th e hinterland, however, also constituted a permanent threat to the city because of the pretensions of the Serbian and Dioclean rulers to this territory. Expansion already began outside of the old city in the eleventh century, while the fi nal northern walls were only built at the end of the thirteenth century (specifi c data on offi cials, tower construction and their position only date back to the fi rst decades of the fourteenth century; the actual course of wall construction during the thirteenth century remains unknown.) Prior to construction of the fi nal versus montem wall, there

  • The Hungarian Historical Review
    Hungarian Historical Review 5, no. 1 (2016): 5–21 Martyn Rady Nonnisi in sensu legum? Decree and Rendelet in Hungary (1790–1914) The Hungarian “constitution” was never balanced, for its sovereigns possessed a supervisory jurisdiction that permitted them to legislate by decree, mainly by using patents and rescripts. Although the right to proceed by decree was seldom abused by Hungary’s Habsburg rulers, it permitted the monarch on occasion to impose reforms in defiance of the Diet. Attempts undertaken in the early 1790s to hem in the ruler’s power by making the written law both fixed and comprehensive were unsuccessful. After 1867, the right to legislate by decree was assumed by Hungary’s government, and ministerial decree or “rendelet” was used as a substitute for parliamentary legislation. Not only could rendelets be used to fill in gaps in parliamentary legislation, they could also be used to bypass parliament and even to countermand parliamentary acts, sometimes at the expense of individual rights. The tendency remains in Hungary for its governments to use discretionary administrative instruments as a substitute for parliamentary legislation. Keywords: constitution, decree, patent, rendelet, legislation, Diet, Parliament In 1792, the Transylvanian Diet opened in the assembly rooms of Kolozsvár (today Cluj, Romania) with a trio, sung by the three graces, each of whom embodied one of the three powers identified by Montesquieu as contributing to a balanced constitution.1 The Hungarian constitution, however, was never balanced. The power attached to the executive was always the greatest. Attempts to hem in the executive, however, proved unsuccessful. During the later nineteenth century, the legislature surrendered to ministers a large share of its legislative capacity, with the consequence that ministerial decree or rendelet often took the place of statute law.
