This book is available as open access through the Bloomsbury Open
Access programme and is available on bloomsburycollections.com. It
is funded by the European Research Council. Roman law is widely
considered to be the foundation of European legal culture and an
inherent source of unity within European law. Roman Law and the
Idea of Europe explores the emergence of this idea of Roman law as
an idealized shared heritage, tracing its origins among exiled
German scholars in Britain during the Nazi regime. The book follows
the spread and influence of these ideas in Europe after the war as
part of the larger enthusiasm for European unity. It argues that
the rise of the importance of Roman law was a reaction against the
crisis of jurisprudence in the face of Nazi ideas of racial and
ultranationalistic law, leading to the establishment of the idea of
Europe founded on shared legal principles. With contributions from
leading academics in the field as well as established younger
scholars, this volume will be of immense interests to anyone
studying intellectual history, legal history, political history and
Roman law in the context of Europe.
