Civil Code concordat with the legislation of the Autonomous Communities

We are undergoing a decoding phase led by the insatiable desire to emphasize autonomy over other communities. The result is a normative magma incociliable, difficult to understand, that citizen-generated and in the lawyer-the feeling of a state legal system composed of multiple jurisdictions.

This misconception of the Spanish legal system was put clear yesterday and cleared by the professor and professor Carlos Rogel Vide, president of the Association for the Study and Teaching of Copyright (ASEDAR), of which I am one for quite some years. Vide reminded the audience gathered in the auditorium of the College Registrar, in Spain there is only one legal system, as provided in the Constitution and the first articles of the Civil Code. Therefore, the disparity rules can not be understood as a failure of the system but as a more or less harmonious laws and regulations or state level combined with the autonomic general.

Because it nonetheless exists a high degree of complexity in the selection and application of standards in the civilian field, required the development of a civil code agreed with the legislation of the Autonomous Communities. Well, Carlos Rogel, along with other authors like Dr. Eduardo Serrano and Jorge Ortega D, yesterday presented the work that gives this post, which is analyzed in a systematic and thorough ways in which the State legislation does combine with the Autonomous Communities, covering in their study even those so-called non foral.
