A fundamental work of French commercial law, this commentary on Colbert's ordinance on commerce by Jousse reflects the 18th-century attempts to adapt rules established a century earlier, rules which contemporary authors already agreed were among the least successful of the Colbertian codifications. Jousse added a commentary on the ordinance concerning \"spices,\" a practice that was one of the most contested under the Ancien Régime and consisted of paying magistrates for each judgment rendered. Abolishing this practice was one of the first measures of the Revolution. The most interesting section is probably that devoted to consular jurisdiction, which offers an important reflection, particularly on the composition of these courts.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mémoire du Droit","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51962480853339,"sku":"7893","price":137.2,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.memoiredudroit.fr\/en\/products\/7893-jousse-nouveau-commentaire-sur-l-1","provider":"La Mémoire du Droit","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
