Item description from seller

Vol. I. (.II.) Oktav. (I:) XV, 488 S.; (II:) XVI, 466 S. 2 zeitgenössische, hellbraune Kalbslederbände mit fünf erhabenen Bünden. P.5000. n Ancient Greece, bankruptcy did not exist. If a man owed and he could not pay, he and his wife, children or servants were forced into "debt slavery" until the creditor recouped losses through their physical labour. Many city-states in ancient Greece limited debt slavery to a period of five years; debt slaves had protection of life and limb, which regular slaves did not have. However, servants of the debtor could be retained beyond that deadline by the creditor and were often forced to serve their new lord for a lifetime, usually under significantly harsher conditions. An exception to this rule was Athens, which by the laws of Solon forbade enslavement for debt; as a consequence, most Athenian slaves were foreigners (Greek or otherwise). The Statute of Bankrupts of 1542 was the first statute under English law dealing with bankruptcy or insolvency.[3] Bankruptcy is also documented in East Asia. According to al-Maqrizi, the Yassa of Genghis Khan contained a provision that mandated the death penalty for anyone who became bankrupt three times. A failure of a nation to meet bond repayments has been seen on many occasions. In a similar way, Philip II of Spain had to declare four state bankruptcies in 1557, 1560, 1575 and 1596. According to Kenneth S. Rogoff, "Although the development of international capital markets was quite limited prior to 1800, we nevertheless catalog the various defaults of France, Portugal, Prussia, Spain, and the early Italian city-states. At the edge of Europe, Egypt, Russia, and Turkey have histories of chronic default as well."[4] The principal focus of modern insolvency legislation and business debt restructuring practices no longer rests on the elimination of insolvent entities, but on the remodeling of the financial and organizational structure of debtors experiencing financial distress so as to permit the rehabilitation and continuation of the business.

Description de la boutique

Wir haben uns zum Ziel gesetzt, jahrhundertealtes Wissen zu erhalten und zugänglich zu machen. Viele bedeutende juristische Werke des 15. - 19. Jahrhunderts sind kaum mehr zugänglich und oft schon so beschädigt, dass sie nicht mehr leserlich sind. Es kursieren schlechte Kopien, die als Vorlage für ein ernsthaftes Arbeiten am Text völlig ungeeignet sind. Wir haben uns darangemacht, diese Werke einzuscannen und in mühevoller Kleinarbeit nachzubearbeiten, so dass sie als gut leserlicher Reprint zur Verfügung stehen. Bei älteren Werken kommt es oft vor, dass durch Abrieb oder Wurmfrass Textstellen ergänzt werden müssen, hier haben wir keine Mühe gescheut, den Text so wiederherzustellen, dass er sich völlig ins Schriftbild eingliedert
