Civil Law Section

European and National Dimensions Of Civil Law

The national laws of the EU Member States are constantly influenced by regulations, directives and the case law of the Court of Justice of the EU. At the same time, however, individual Member States retain their own specific traditions, which are also translated into civil law standards, thus creating the need to ensure consistency between the two levels. The aim of the chosen topic of the section is to arouse the ambition of the scientific community to seek an answer to the question whether the national legislator is limited in terms of its broader development in connection with the legislative work on the new basic code of private law, taking into account the limits of the primary EU law, or, on the contrary, must look at the recodification work from a longer perspective, in the sense of sub speciae aeternatis. Particular attention is paid to the areas of contract law, inheritance law, tort law, consumer protection and other areas.
