What reading level is The Legal Remedy for Plutocracy book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This law was no fren- zied outburst of the sans culottes. It simply gave effect to the unanimous opinion expressed through more than two hundred years, of all the great jurists of France, that sub- stitutions were odious, embarrassing, the matrix of fraud, and no7i satis republics expcdientcs.
Although there is some apparent conflict in his deliver- ances, Montesquieu said in his Persian Letters that substi- tutions were useful only in an aristocracy, but that they should not be permitted eithe...r in a monarchy or in a democracy, except in a very limited degree, and under the most stringent regulations.
Chancellor D'Aguesseau said that the best of all laws would be that entirely abrogating all fidei commissa.
Cardinal Mantica gives the names of a host of learned doctors who had declared against substitutions and fidei commissa, and sums up twelve cogent reasons against their existence.
In the discussions which took place over the Civil Code of 1804, all the jurisconsults expressed their utter disap- probation of substitutions, and Napoleon himself, who, as 19 First Consul, took part in those discussions, declared that their only purpose was to maintain the so-called great fam- ilies, and to perpetuate in their eldest sons the splendor of a great name, and that they were contrary to good morals and to reason.
