The "birth" of receivables

The double-sided civil law notion of obligation divides into créance on the active side and debt on the passive side. It encompasses claims pursued against a wide variety of debtors, whether arising on the basis of contract, tort, or statute. Debates on the date when an obligation might arise (for example, date of contract as contrasted with time of performance or moment of breach) rest on the assumption that an obligation comes into existence at one point in time, which mechanically triggers the same legal consequences for all kinds of obligation.

Natural law and individual rights in France in the 19th Century

The individual rights which were consecrated in France by the declarations of rights from the revolutionary era brought about all through Nineteenth century a body of law which aimed at organizing the legal exercise of these rights.

The expression "collective liberties", used until now to designate the liberties of the Second Generation, does not fully represent the content of those liberties. Those liberties are not the affirmation of the collective right over the individual right, but of the individual liberties becoming effective when applied collectively.

Whatever the future of the WTO may be, the Dispute Settlement Mechanism (DSM) as an inter-governmental dispute settlement system is a key institution for the evolution of International Law.
