Resumen

KLUGER, Viviana. The “revista de Lejislacion y jurisprudencia”. An editorial project in the dawn of codification (1869-1880). Rev. hist. derecho [online]. 2019, n.57, pp.73-115. ISSN 1853-1784.

The “Revista de Lejislacion y Jurisprudencia” waspublished in Buenos Aires between 1869 and 1880, and it was directed by four professors of the University of Buenos Aires, José M. Moreno, Ceferino Araujo, Antonio E. Malaver and Juan José Montes de Oca.

The Revista appeared when Vélez Sarsfield had already submitted to the Executive Power the first book of the Argentinean Civil Code Draft. That is why it is of great interest to analyze this publication that began to be issued at a turning point of the systematization of our legal system.

I begin with a reference to the publications existing at the time when the Revista was first published, and then go on to analyze its structure and content. In this sense, I deal with the judicial decisions reproduced and / or analyzed in the Revista and their respective commentators, the scholarly writings, commented works, discussions, proposed reforms and the relations of the Revista with other publications. I conclude with some final considerations.
