CONT

Parler de la transmission successorale revient à annoncer le prélude de l'appropriation privée par les héritiers des biens du de cujus. Ce problème de la transmission soulève une question fondamentale. Est-ce que celui qui a la vocation de devenir héritier doit recevoir nécessairement un bien de la succession?
