The article considers the role of the notary in the inheritance of enterprises without the formation of a legal entity. At the present stage, many individual entrepreneurs create enterprises without forming a legal entity, but when inheriting such an enterprise, there are problems of separating the enterprise from the personal property of citizens. In this regard, it is proposed to carry out the state registration and statement on the cadastral accounting of a business without forming a legal entity. The role of a notary will be significantly increased if the mandatory state registration of an enterprise without the formation of a legal entity is established by law.

Governments claim to protect citizens. They claim to protect them from criminals at home and enemies abroad. A government's capacity to protect is rooted in that government's capacity to do violence — specifically, its capacity to do more violence than can criminals and/or enemies. Governments lay claim to skill, sagacity, and support, but they also claim strength and a monopoly on the legitimate use of force. Citizens may enjoy security but they also provide for security through the payment of taxes and men especially pay for it through personal service and sometimes sacrifice.State violence is often approved by citizens. Indeed, when the state exercises or threatens violence it is often seen not as violence but as “defense” or as “law enforcement.”

This chapter explores the various ways in which Scots demonstrated their loyalty to the British state in the 1790s. It is argued here that loyalism, and not patriotism, is the better term to use when assessing Scottish support for the government and the British state in the 1790s, and a main theme explored in this analysis is the question of what constitutes genuine loyalty, and how this can be measured. The evidence on loyalism is extensive, and it is clear that the Scots demonstrated their loyalty to the state in a number of different ways, such as loyalist resolutions, suggestions for policy initiatives, offers of personal service to the state, and a variety of voluntary financial contributions. A main argument in this chapter is that, in general terms, loyalism in Scotland comes across as very constructive in its outlook – that it was loyalism on the government’s terms.

The chapter charts a shift in attitudes to the sale of office, from the Jacobean period, when it seems to have been relatively commonplace, to the early nineteenth century, when the practice was formally banned for most offices (except those in the army). This reflected a shift away from the idea of office as personal property towards office as a public duty, and away from the idea of office as generating informal, personal profit beyond the public, formal remuneration decided by the state or corporation. But the shift was a protracted and messy one, with an ongoing contest between different ways of thinking about venality. For some it was a pragmatic issue, often related to customary norms, that did not imperil the morality or the smooth running of the state; for others, it represented an immoral pursuit of self-interest and avarice that posed a dangerous threat to the polity.

Several of the cases already considered under the commerce clause involved further questions under the Fourteenth Amendment. Georgia's misuse of the mileage ratio in applying the unit rule to the taxation of wandering cars was found so arbitrary as to violate the requirement of due process. The minority insisted that “the case presents no question of taxing a foreign corporation with respect to personal property that never has come within the borders of the state.” This was not specifically denied by the majority who seem to base their decision on excessive valuation of property within the jurisdiction rather than on taxation of property outside the jurisdiction. Yet in substance the case is one of taxing extra-state values though not extra-state tangible objects.Missouri's excessive fee for certificates authorizing the issue of bonds secured by railroad property within the state, which was held an unconstitutional regulation of interstate commerce, was alleged by complainant to be a violation of the Fourteenth Amendment as well. The opinion of the court did not pass on the due-process question, but the cases cited under the commerce clause relied also on the Fourteenth Amendment.

Sealing and stamping was an important part of Egypt’s daily life. Royal and official institutional seals played a significant role in the administration of the state and in the hierarchical system. Seals of individual officials, private persons, and families not only marked personal property, but could define the position of the owner in the society, as well. Besides such real seals, amulet seals and pseudo-seals exist, which have no administrative function and were not made for sealing. Egyptian seal-devices are divided into two main types: cylinder and stamp seals. The Egyptians used cylinder seals since the Predynastic period; they were particularly popular during the Old Kingdom for royal, administrative, and private use. Stamp seals were developed in the late Old Kingdom. They have either a geometrical or a figurative top, and a flat bottom, which is inscribed, figuratively decorated, or ornamented with patterns. Figurative seals are either zoomorphic or anthropomorphic, and usually depict icons, such as heads or full figures; they also display motifs, particularly figurative pairs or small groups. The most famous figurative type was the scarab and scarab-related parallel types with oval bases, such as scaraboids (with figurative, regularly curved, non-scarab back) and cowroids (with cowry shell shaped back). Special scarab types with specific functions emerged over time, for example, heart scarabs, winged scarabs, or pectorals with scarab centrepiece.

ABSTRACTIn the debate between the charity organisation society and the new forms of personal service societies that grew up during the Edwardian period, disagreement centred on the nature of the boundary to be drawn between state and voluntary action. The paper reviews the theory and practice of the COS and suggests that while the new societies had much in common with the COS regarding their methods, the nature of their ‘partnership’ with the state was significantly different. While the COS operated a division of labour based on client groups, the new societies preferred a task-based division. The paper argues that while the new societies were determinedly more civic-minded and pragmatic regarding their attitudes towards state welfare provision, they offered no coherent rationale for voluntary effort to replace the theory developed by the COS.
