Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
The Ius Commune Moot Court - The Imperial Aulic Council, run by the University of Vienna, the Justus-Liebig-University Gießen and Moscow State University, aims at introducing participants to a fascinating example of legal pluralism, the Ius Commune as it was practiced in the early modern period. The focus is on the application of Roman Law, Canon Law and the great variety of particular laws that existed in early modern Europe. The Ius Commune Moot Court is concerned with "law in action" rather than "law in the books". The jurisdiction of the Imperial Aulic Council, one, if not the the most important court in the world of the Ius Commune and located in Vienna most of the time serves as a point of reference for the Ius Commune MC. In 2019 the Ius Commune MC will be held in conjunction with the Historical Jewish Law MC with the finals taking place at the Supreme Court of the State of Israel in Jerusalem. A case which the Imperial Aulic Council in Vienna decided in part on the basis of Jewish law will serve as a historical reference case.
