It thus illustrates the central issues of the new republic. If, as a Minister for Justice once remarked, crime can be seen as 'the reverse image of any political system, the shadow cast by the social and economic structures of the day', it is natural to use court cases to illuminate the eventful history of the Federal Republic's first seventy years"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Trials $z Germany (West) 650 0 $a Trials $z Germany. 650 0 $a Law $z Germany (West) 650 0 $a Law $z Germany. 650 0 $a Justice, Administration of $z Germany (West) 650 0 $a Justice, Administration of $z Germany. 650 7 $a Justice, Administration of. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00985154 650 7 $a Law. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00993678 650 7 $a Trials. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01156290 651 7 $a Germany. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01210272 651 7 $a Germany (West) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01210273 776 08 $i Online version: $a Ridley, Hugh, $t Law in west german democracy $d Leiden ; Boston : Brill, 2019. $z 9789004414471 $w (DLC) 2019032225 830 0 $a Studies in Central European histories ; $v v. 66. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20200318012111.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E825FAA02DF611EAB868BF0597128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
