Click to increase image sizeClick to decrease image size Notes1 Zhaoyang Zhang, Zhongguo zaoqi minfa de jiangou (China University of Political Science and Law Press 2014).2 While some earlier law-related Chinese treatises had used the term ‘fen分’ (i.e. portion) to denote ownership, by the Han Dynasty the more commonly-used term was the binome ‘mingfen’, which combined the concept of title to rank (ie ming) with the inheritance law concept of fen.
期刊介绍:
Comparative Legal History is an international and comparative review of law and history. Articles will explore both ''internal'' legal history (doctrinal and disciplinary developments in the law) and ''external'' legal history (legal ideas and institutions in wider contexts). Rooted in the complexity of the various Western legal traditions worldwide, the journal will also investigate other laws and customs from around the globe. Comparisons may be either temporal or geographical and both legal and other law-like normative traditions will be considered. Scholarship on comparative and trans-national historiography, including trans-disciplinary approaches, is particularly welcome.
