Chapters from the Development of the Unification of Private Law

Summary/Abstract: The aim of the present article is to point out certain stages in the unification of private law. Understandably, the analysis starts with a discussion of Roman law as the basic source of law for mostly Continental private law. This is followed by the effect of natural law on modern codifications. The text then discusses some effects on post-war development, mainly in Eastern Europe, that eventually turned out to be a “blind alley”. The article forms a preliminary study for an extensive monograph that the authors are presently working on.
