Abstract

The civil code has been in force since 2011. It was preceded by an official statement explaining the necessity of adopting a new code. Discursively, it is now a textual sandwich, with the code's text situated between this justificatory discourse and the doctrinal texts that followed the adoption of civil law. Our task is to uncover the legislator's thought process at the time of the code's adoption and to determine whether the code itself transforms into a source of principles and ideas in its own right.
