CONSTANTIN HAMANGIU: NOTES ON JURISTS’ MORALITY AND LEGISLATIVE UNIFICATION

Summary/Abstract: Our short study presents two aspects of Constantin Hamangiu’s personality and thinking. The former aspectrelates to his view on the jurists’ morality, namely to the unwritten demand for their abstinence andsacrifices, so that a jurist may be a model for his fellows. The latter aspect refers to the necessity oflegislative unification of the Romanian society after having achieved their unitary national state in 1918.This process was a necessary one, as each former province united with Romania used to have its ownlaws and legal traditions. Therefore, the absence of legislative unification could have lead, on the one hand,to the emergence of an inter-provincial law and, on the other, might have been an element that couldundermine the very concept of state unity.
