Resumen
ESBORRAZ, DAVID FÁBIO. Puerto Rico's Civil Code 2020 from the Perspective of Comparative Law. Rev. Derecho Privado [online]. 2024, n.46, pp.249-291. Epub 16-Feb-2024. ISSN 0123-4366. https://doi.org/10.18601/01234366.46.10.
From the perspective of comparative law, this article analyzes how much the new Code Civil of Puerto Rico contributes to the development and consolidation of the Romanistic legal system, reaffirming its roots in Roman law. Additionally, it evaluates how the Code adapts to the new paradigms of private law in the early 21st century and aligns itself with avant-garde civil codifications in many of its norms. All this, despite being a system strongly besieged by the Common Law.
