Abstract

DELIO MACHADO, Luis María. A Uruguayan anti-abolitionist formula on death penalty in the interim republican pre-coded period. Rev.Fac.Der [online]. 2015, n.39, pp.4-4. ISSN 0797-8316.

The paper intends to present the results of a research concerning the analysis of unpublished nineteenth century sources on Uruguayan legal history and education, which reveal the continuity between the Spanish-colonial and the republican pre-coded legislations. The sources examined in the current paper include manuscripts that correspond to specific areas: the legal practice and the Uruguayan University of the Republic. Firstly, there’s a description of the fields in which the revealed sources are inscribed; and particularly the study of a documentary piece, which is fundamental because of two reasons. It’s the only found source that defends death penalty, while being the first thesis presented at the Major University of the Republic.

Keywords : history of the faculty of law; legal education; death penalty; uruguayan sources of law.
