Summary/Abstract: In her work, the author examines the significance and historical creation of major European codifications of civil law, which influenced the development of civil law systems in many countries of the world with their examples. Using legal methodology, especially historical, dogmatic, normative and comparative methods, the author tried to provide adequate explanations of various theoretical and practical approaches in the development and codification of European civil law in order to shed light on the functional relationships between the civil law systems of European countries which are integral parts of one European civil codifications “in the making“. With this approach, the author was able to point out the relationships that exist between national civil law systems and the law of the European Union (EU), for which the inherent principle of the primacy of legal acquis (Acquis Communautaire) applies. Trying to crystallize the legal approaches and concepts adopted in different EU member states, the author provided meaningful explanations about the position of the Serbian Civil Code (SZG) in relation to the civil law systems of some European countries.
