A quick definition of legal regime:

A legal regime is a set of rules and policies that cover any legal issue and help to decide that issue. It can be used for international issues or within a country. It is like a system of rules that everyone follows to make sure things are fair and just.

A more thorough explanation:

A legal regime is a set of rules, policies, and norms that cover any legal issue and facilitate arrangements for deciding that issue. It can refer to a system of government or administration, or to international issues.

  • Community-property regime: A system of rules that governs the ownership of property between spouses. In some states, property acquired during marriage is considered community property and is owned equally by both spouses.
  • International regime: A set of norms, rules, and policies that cover international issues and facilitate arrangements among countries. For example, the United Nations has established an international regime to address climate change.
  • Régime dotal: A legal concept in civil law that gives a husband the right to administer his wife's dotal property. The property is returned to the wife when the marriage is dissolved by death or divorce.
  • Régime en communauté: A legal concept in civil law that establishes a community of property between husband and wife upon marriage, unless excluded by a marriage contract.

These examples illustrate how legal regimes can apply to different areas of law, such as property law, international law, and civil law. They also show how legal regimes can establish rules and policies that govern the relationships between individuals, governments, and countries.
