Abstract

This work aims to describe and comment on some of the main institutions of Roman law like the inheritance law of the state, tax law reform, the creation of the public police service, and the misappropriation or misuse of public treasury, among others. Being created ex novo or reformed by Augustus’ Legislation, they are particularly interesting because, unlike other well-known Augustus’ laws on matrimony, province and municipality, and citizenship and freedom, they have been hardly studied.
