To Antonio Padoa Schioppa A Great European Legal Historian

Acknowledgments

This book is the product of a collective effort about family law, society and history in Europe, that is still now of great topical interest. It concerns each of us and every change needs our good will to become effective. Family law in Europe over the centuries shows periods of general stability and others of almost frantic evolution up to current times: the family unit is continuously transforming as well as our society. All the papers here published are evidence of a small or a big fragment of this evolution: family changes its function and its structure, its relations within itself but it continues to be a place of reference, a refuge in which to revert back to when the difficulties of the outside world seem impossible to overcome…What I have written corresponds to my profound conviction. My idea could take shape with the help of many. First of all, I want to thank Springer
