To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Customary law naturally per- tains to local life, and Roman law to centralisation of power. The two cannot live side by side, and the one must kill the other. That is why under French rule in Algeria, when a Kabyle djenimah — a village commune — wants to plead for its lands, every inhabitant of the commune must bring his isolated ac- tion before the judge, who will hear fifty or even two hundred isolated actions sooner than hear the collective suit of the djemmah. The Jacobin code of the Conven...tion (known un- der the name of Code Napoleon) does not recognize custom- ary law, it only recognizes Roman or rather Byzantine law. 38 KROPOTKIN That is why in France when the wind blows down a tree on the national highway, or a peasant gives a stonebreaker two or three francs in preference to the unpleasant task of repairing the communal road himself, it is necessary for twelve or fifteen employees of the Home Office and Treasury to be put in motion, and for more than fifty documents to be exchanged between these austere functionaries, before the tree can be sold or the peasant receives permission to deposit two or three francs into the communal treasury.
