Aliens in Medieval Law - The Origins of Modern Citizenship (Hardcover): Keechang Kim Aliens in Medieval Law - The Origins of Modern Citizenship (Hardcover)
Keechang Kim
R3,110 Discovery Miles 31 100 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

In this original reinterpretation of the legal status of foreigners in medieval England, Keechang Kim proposes a radically new understanding of the genesis of the modern legal regime and the important distinction between citizens and noncitizens. Making full use of medieval and early modern sources, the book examines how feudal legal arguments were transformed by the political theology of the Middle Ages to become the basis of the modern legal outlook. This innovative study will interest academics, lawyers, and students of legal history, immigration and minority issues.

Aliens in Medieval Law - The Origins of Modern Citizenship (Paperback): Keechang Kim Aliens in Medieval Law - The Origins of Modern Citizenship (Paperback)
Keechang Kim
R1,433 Discovery Miles 14 330 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

This reinterpretation of the legal status of foreigners in medieval England boldly rejects the canonical view which has for centuries dominated the imagination of historians and laymen alike. Keechang Kim proposes an understanding of the genesis of the modern legal regime and the important distinction between citizens and non-citizens. Making full use of medieval and early modern sources, Kim offers a compelling argument that the late medieval changes in legal treatment of foreigners are vital to an understanding of the shift of focus from status to the State, and that the historical foundation of the modern state system should be sought in this shift of outlook. The book contains a re-evaluation of the legal aspects of feudalism, examining, in particular, how the feudal legal arguments were transformed by the political theology of the Middle Ages to become the basis of the modern legal outlook.
