Schiedsverfahrensrecht in Antike und Mittelalter: Eine historische Grundlegung

Arbitration proceedings were also common means of out-of-court conflict resolution in antiquity and the Middle Ages. Roman law has laid many conceptual foundations on which later epochs were built. The embedding in procedural law dates back to the Middle Ages. On these historical precursors, even some principles of modern arbitration law are still based. In this book, a wide arc is made, which for the first time shows the corresponding differences, similarities and lines of development. The most important cross-stage dogmatic questions of arbitration law are addressed, but also the contract forms developed in practice are included in the interpretation. The depiction covers the period from the 1st century B.C. to the 13th century A.D.
