Starting from this essential principle, the textbook describes how the law determines the two categories of persons, natural persons and legal persons, how it individualises them and how it protects them. The concern for natural persons is all the greater today as the law takes into account the bodies of human beings. This is notably why the book sets out the « Law of Persons » through the various branches of Law, all of which are now concerned by it. - 📚See the entire collection in which the book is published. - 📚See the presentation of the Courses related to this one : 🕴️D.

The subject is moreover part of the competitive examinations and entrance examinations for these professions. But civil procedure is not only a professional law: it deals with problems that concern all lawyers, whoever they are, whether or not they practise procedure. Knowledge of the basic procedural notions is necessary for a proper understanding of many legal questions. - 📚See all the books of the same collection “Cours Dalloz – Série Droit privé“, created and directed by Marie-Anne Frison-Roche, and in particular those dealing with the branches of Law interacting with Civil Procedure : 📕Procédure pénale (Criminal Procedure) 📕Procédures civiles d’exécution (Civil Enforcement Procedures) 📕Institutions juridictionnelles (Jurisdictional Institutions) -

Menétrey, Droit du commerce international (International Trade Law), 4th ed., 2025, Dalloz, “Cours Dalloz-Série Droit privé” Series, 410 p. - ► General presentation of this Course (written in French) : This Course sets out all the specific rules of international trade (sale, transport, distribution, etc.). International trade law has become a discipline at the heart of the process of globalisation of the economy. It is therefore expanding rapidly. It is not merely a branch of private international law. International trade law has a definite autonomy through its spirit, its methods and its object. The sources of this law are particular insofar as it gives pride of place to the usages of international trade, more generally referred to as the lex mercatoria. The actors of international trade are varied: companies, of course, but also States. The particularism of international trade law also lies at the level of international trade operations: sale, transport, distribution, etc. obey specific rules, most often substantive rules of international origin. Finally, the importance and originality of international trade law are shown in the use of arbitration. As private justice, arbitration has today become the ordinary means of resolving international trade disputes. The book is intended for students discovering the subject as well as for academics and practitioners. It combines theoretical knowledge and practical guidance. It opens onto a different vision of law, that is to say a law partly dissociated from the State. It also stresses the need to build a law that meets the challenges of globalisation. - 📚See the entire collection in which the book is published. - 📚Books in the collection directly related to this one : 🕴️B.

Marly, Droit des assurances (Insurance Law), 1st ed. 2013 – 2nd ed., 2024, Dalloz, “Cours Dalloz-Série Droit privé” Series, 330 p. - ► General presentation of the book (written in French) : Insurance law: the meeting of a conjuring act and a predictive art. Insurance undertakes to grasp the future by organising the meeting of a conjuring act and a predictive art. Legally, this meeting emerges from a contract whose regime is set out in Book One of the French Insurance Code. The purpose of this book is to go through this Book in order to discover or deepen a normative corpus whose technicality is matched only by its richness. In the light of case law and legal scholarship, insurance law calls for constantly renewed reflection, which this course aims both to present and to nourish. Structured in three parts, it examines the rules common to all insurance contracts before studying the provisions specific to property and casualty insurance and then to personal insurance. This pedagogical book will be of interest to Master 1 and specialised Master 2 students as well as to insurance professionals. - 📚See the entire collection in which the book is published. -

It is also the subject of many political debates and sometimes of fierce ideological controversies. It is the law of public intervention, but also that of private initiative and solidarity. It is complex and changing. This is why this edition deals both with the various social security schemes and with social assistance; it also includes extensive developments on supplementary occupational social protection, a rapidly expanding field. Classic questions, such as the impact of international and European law or the salient features of social protection litigation, as well as little-studied mechanisms of « social compensation », are presented there with an abundant bibliography facilitating further reading. - 📚See the entire collection in which the book is published. - 📚Books in the collection directly related to this one : 🕴️F.

Today, it is not only a special criminal law but also, indeed above all, a criminal law of exceptions (which raises problems with regard to general criminal law, itself inseparable from criminal procedure) that students and practitioners alike must learn. This Course is built in three parts. The first deals with offences against persons; the second with offences against property; the third with offences against the Nation, the State and public peace.

Then, following a chronological approach, the second part describes what happens before the public prosecution is set in motion, before the third part describes what happens from that moment onwards. The second part therefore examines judicial police investigations, the decision to take no further action and the alternatives to prosecution, while the third part deals with referral to the judge, the pre-trial investigation, the hearing and the judgment. - 📚See the entire collection in which the book is published. - 📚Books in the collection directly related to this one : 📕Droit pénal général (General Criminal Law) 📕Droit pénal spécial (Special Criminal Law) 📕Droit pénal des affaires (Business Criminal Law) -

It also expresses a new way of conceiving civil law, commercial law, criminal law and public law. These are many reasons to learn and understand « Consumer Law » thanks to this clear and up-to-date textbook. The book first describes the « contractual » rules of consumer law, whether drawn from the general law or from the special law of consumption, then devotes a second part to the procedural rules of the subject, so abundant are the disputes in this field, whether collective or individual. The texts and specific solutions are rooted in commercial law and competition law as well as in criminal law, consumer law developing more and more at the level of European Union Law. The book restores the unity of the subject out of this diversity, for it is always the protection of consumers that is at stake. - 📕Read the back cover (in French) - 📕Read the table of contents (in French) - 📚See the entire collection in which the book is published. -

Once considered shameful under the name of « bankruptcy law », the law of « insolvency proceedings » (procédures collectives) has been, since 1967, a law protecting the enterprise, aimed at preventing its difficulties, at its safeguard and its recovery, its liquidation and its sale being only the last resort. This concern has been further strengthened by the influence of economic theory.
