| description | Jean-François Baudouin (1759-1835) became the official publisher of the Constituent Assembly in June 1789. He standed in this position until the end of the Convention. Baudouin printed all the statutes (called decrees at the time) that had been adopted by the revolutionary assemblies. He therefore printed the most complete set of revolutionary laws ever produced. With the collusion and active help of the archivist Armand Gaston Camus (1740-1804), Baudouin also succeeded in inventing a largely unknown law : legislative law. The legislative law was an officially printed law even though it had not been assented to by the king under the Constituent Assembly. To put it differently, the legislative law was an illegal law… printed by the official publisher of the revolutionary assemblies. To understand its novelty, legislative law should be compared with executive law, printed at the same time in the « collection du Louvre ». Two major kind of laws thereby co-existed under the French Revolution : legislative law and executive law. This distinction could prone to be more useful in understanding what a revolutionary law was than to speak about circumstantial or exceptional law which are commonly used by jurists and historians. |
