The texts compiled in this book, which the “traille” encloses, and which we have largely been able to restore, are a condensation of the liberties and privileges acquired over time by the people from its rulers.

For over two centuries, perhaps more, the different groups constituting the political community agreed on a ius commune, a municipal and “national” customary law, which ensured social peace. Thus, Liège, well-known for its forward-looking advances in matters of individual liberty, of the control and separation of powers, is also ahead of most foreign cities in the field of legal publicity; the registration of the law is not confined to the clerk’s office in sovereign court.Cairn free access
