It comprises new and previously published papers written by distinguished comparative law scholars. Focusing on the private law of England, Scotland, France, Quebec and the Netherlands, this book investigates whether the common law trust could be understood as a civil law patrimony by appropriation, and whether civil law and mixed traditions could create local versions of the common law trust using patrimony as the main conceptual building block UR - http://dx.doi.org/10.3366/edinburgh/9780748697748.001.0001 ER -
