ABOUT THE GENERAL DICTIONARY OF CANON LAW

Abstract

A few months ago the General Canon Law Dictionary was published. It is a work that may be an academic point of reference of a certain importance in the field of the law of the Church. A work of a first level is appreciated and will be of great importance to all who are engaged in the science of law. Therefore it is useful to present it. To do this the author uses the same presentation text he wrote for the first vol-ume of the dictionary, making small specific modifications. The culmination of this remarkable effort, which began in 2002, allows us access to a remarkable work which usefulness, in the short term, will be evident. It is somehow crown as serious work of the Faculty of Canon Law from the University of Navarra that has previously pub-lished a number of manuals and Exegetical Commentary on the Code of Canon Law.
