Abstract

The celebrations in Berlin commemorating the 75th anniversary of its founding have induced the Law School of the University of California to celebrate the establishment of the Law Faculty of the University of Berlin in 1810. We felt it was appropriate to pay tribute to the distinguished members of that group and to the impact of their work on legal thought beyond the confines of Prussia and Germany and in particular on that in the United States.
