Britannica.com academic edition, November 20, 2018: German Civil Code, in German Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch (Throughout the 19th century, German legal scholars argued about the type of national civil code that should be written and, indeed, whether one should be written at all. The arguments were intense enough to have the effect of delaying codification. Only with the formation of the Reich (empire) in 1871 was it possible to undertake a program of national codification. Commissions were established, and, when the first draft of the code was presented for critical appraisal in 1888, it was rejected as being too Roman. A second draft was promulgated in 1896 and went into effect in 1900) |
