Answer:
Slavery is often termed "the peculiar institution," but it was hardly peculiar to the United States. Almost every society in the history of the world has experienced slavery at one time or another. The aborigines of Australia are about the only group that has so far not revealed a past mired in slavery—and perhaps the omission has more to do with the paucity of the evidence than anything else. To explore American slavery in its full international context, then, is essentially to tell the history of the globe. That task is not possible in the available space, so this essay will explore some key antecedents of slavery in North America and attempt to show what is distinctive or unusual about its development. The aim is to strike a balance between identifying continuities in the institution of slavery over time while also locating significant changes. The trick is to suggest preconditions, anticipations, and connections without implying that they were necessarily determinations (1).

Answer:
Justinian's Proceedings.
Explanation:
The Proceedings of Emperor Justinian had a great influence on the future development of law. Its impact is greater in Europe and smaller in Asia. The legal systems of many modern countries are still based today on the elements of Justinian law. Already at the beginning of his reign, Justinian sought to reform Roman law, which had changed a great deal over time. Some fragments of legal acts before the reform were recounted, and many of them contained earlier acts of slavery. At the time of the creation of the law, and even later, the Roman Empire was more feudal than the slave. Justinian's Proceedings are the foundation of modern law.
