What is the libertarian perspective on the "Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch" (Civil German Law Book)?

I'm a Latino libertarian anarcho-capitalist. Since my country's law is a social-democratic juspositivistbullshit that only serves to favor the Welfare State mafia, guarantee impunity, and vilify Natural Rights, I enjoy studying different existing legal codes.

To date, I consider the Anglo-Saxon (British and American) Common Law model and Early Roman Law to be the best existing models, but I have no clear understanding of the French Napoleonic Code or the German Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch. Could someone explain to me about these legal codes and their compatibility or incompatibility with libertarianism?

Legally speaking it is a masterpiece and revolutionised the law (the original 1900 BGB). It draws from the Code Civil and Justinian Roman Law (Pandectism).

Ideologically speaking it follows a bourgeois, liberal-conservative worldview in line with its time. One impressive thing about it is that it has proven to be quite adaptable over the time, especially if you take into consideration Germany’s drastic regime changes since 1900. The inclusion of « undefined legal concepts » within the code allowed the emergence of the legal concept of « mittelbare Drittwirkung » of fundamental rights.
