This book offers a comprehensive examination of how the Fourth Lateran Council's prohibition against trial by ordeal was implemented in Danish secular law and how it required both a fundamental restructuring of legal procedure and an entirely different approach to jurisprudence in practice. It offers a broader understanding of how ideology could penetrate and change jurisprudence firstly by changing the norms, secondly by presupposing new kind of legal institutions. Rather than focusing on pure dogmatics, this investigation will focus on uncovering the ideological character of procedure with regard to how those learned in law and those holding political power thought that jurisprudence needed to be constructed in order to ensure that justice was done in medieval Denmark.

"Derived from the renowned multi-volume 'International Encyclopaedia of Laws', this book provides ready access to legislation and practice concerning the environment in Denmark. A general introduction covers geographic considerations, political, social and cultural aspects of environmental study, the sources and principles of environmental law, environmental legislation, and the role of public authorities. 00The main body of the book deals first with laws aimed directly at protecting the environment from pollution in specific areas such as air, water, waste, soil, noise, and radiation. Then, a section on nature and conservation management covers protection of natural and cultural resources such as monuments, landscapes, parks and reserves, wildlife, agriculture, forests, fish, subsoil, and minerals. Further treatment includes the application of zoning and land-use planning, rules on liability, and administrative and judicial remedies to environmental issues. There is also an analysis of the impact of international and regional legislation and treaties on environmental regulation."-- Provided by publisher

This text explores the conditions for the development of ethical norms among Danish practising lawyers. The analysis draws on international studies in the field of sociology of professions, and investigates some of the consequences of internationalization and commercialization for the legal community. The author's thesis is that the ethical outlook among practising lawyers has been altered because of the working conditions and the organization of law work. The book gives an overview of legislation as regards entry and conduct regulation concerning Scandinavian practising lawyers, compared to England/Wales and USA. It presents an investigation of the professionalization process of the Scandinavian lawyers, and it analyses the specific structure of legal professions in relation to the division between common law and civil law, arguing that this division is becoming less meaningful in relation to the legal profession.

The fact that Denmark is an EU member state also contributes to this interest. These observations constitute the background for this short book. Its purpose is to provide knowledge of the legal sources that are applied in Danish law and at the same time supply an insight into how legal method is used in the Danish legal system. Accordingly, the book may be viewed as a key to the understanding of Danish law.
