EINFLUSS DES GEMEINEN RECHTES IN SLOWENIEN AUS DER PERSPEKTIVE DER NEUEREN FORSCHUNGEN
INFLUENCE OF IUS COMMUNE IN SLOVENIA FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF RECENT RESEARCH

Summary/Abstract: The author presents the state of research in the field concerning the reception in the Slovenian territory, concluding that in comparison with many other European countries this phenomenon in Slovenia has not been given enough attention. More systematic studies aiming at the analysis of specific legal sources as well as contractual and judicial practice should be carried out in the future. Only separate detailed studies, when combined, will ultimately give a clear picture of reception in the present day Slovenian territory and will thus also enrich the field of European legal history. The survey of the general evidence on reception is followed by the presentation of recent significant discoveries in the field of inheritance and criminal law. The reception of inheritance law for both testamentary and intestate succession in littoral communities reached its peak in the last quarter of the 14th century. Reception in the continental part of Slovenia was slower and more graduate. It seems that reception in these regions lagged behind other fields of civil law.
