A motu proprio by Pope Leo XII, issued on June 21, 1826, regulates the olive oil market in Rome, troubled by certain frauds that the papal government was to eradicate. Among other things, the Pope establishes the office of the inspector («rincontro») of the weighing of oil, obliged to keep a specific register. Due to the similarities with some modern European regulations, the motu proprio offers interesting points of comparison.

Among other things, the Pope establishes the office of the inspector («rincontro») of the weighing of oil, obliged to keep a specific register. Due to the similarities with some modern European regulations, the motu proprio offers interesting points of comparison.File in questo prodotto:
