The judge of Argentina’s Supreme Court of Justice Ricardo Lorenzetti gave an inaugural conference at the International Congress on Civil Law of the University of Salamanca, Spain, which was part of the official acts of the university’s Eighth Centenary.
The congress, in which Lorenzetti talked about “Person, Constitution and Civil Law” will take place between October 24th and 26th of 2018.
The University emphasized that this house of high studies “was born in 1218 precisely around the studies of Iure Civile (along with those of Canon Law), as the frontispiece of the Civil Law Classroom (today, Aula Salinas) of the Old Studies. Study. Its statutes served as a model for the foundation of most of the oldest and most prestigious American universities. The Salmantina Network of Latin American Civilists IVS CIVILE SALMANTICENSE and the Department of Private Law of our University could not let the historic moment of the 8th Centenary of our alma mater go by with impunity, without offering a scientific and institutional testimony of what Civil Law represents today in Spain and America. And there is nothing better for this than an INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS ON CIVIL LAW, in which we summon our civilian colleagues from the European and Latin American environment”.
Dolores Delgado García, Minister of Justice of the Government of Spain, and Ricardo Rivero Ortega, rector of the University of Salamanca, among other authorities, are part of the meeting’s honor committee.
