La reforma del Libro Primero del Fuero Nuevo de Navarra

Abstract

The First Book of the New Legal Code, devoted to Navarre people, family and households, included notable developments in its 2019 reform, such as a new concept for the special protection of the assets of disabled and dependent people within families. It also recognised the heterogeneity of family units, as a plural social reality and a manifestation of the fundamental rights and individual freedoms of people, regulating marriage, stable couples, etc. «Paternal authority» becomes «parental responsibility». Different traditional institutions such as the dowry and the thirteen gold coins (arras) given by the bridegroom to the bride were removed.
