Book, Law in History, The: Introductory Lessons 6/19[LS]

The processes of social change and their impact on Law are more than pertinent reasons to justify the importance of the History of Law in legal courses. Some changes derive from major transformations in the role of the State in society: a liberal State gives up its place to an interventionist State, which, in turn, seems to give up its place to an arbiter-regulatory State. Other changes come from changes in mentalities and private relationships, as well as in interpretations and social imagination. Given these nuances, this book was created, which has the characteristic of providing a panoramic reading of the History of Law, focused on Brazil from the 19th century, and suggest a way of doing History and an interpretation of the cultural experience of jurists.
