The article highlights the role of prof. A.L. Makovsky in the creation of the new Civil Code of the Russian Federation of 1994–2006, as well as in the organization of the practice of its application and the development of the Concept for the Development of Civil Legislation of the Russian Federation in 2009. Special attention is paid to the activities of A.L. Makovsky on the preparation of the Fourth Part of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation and the concept of intellectual rights enshrined by it, opposing the traditional archaic concept of “intellectual property”. The importance of the need to increase the attention of civil law to the issue of protecting the rights and interests of citizens and other weakest participants in civil legal relations in their opposition to the interests of large companies striving to take a privileged position in property turnover is shown. From this point of view, the author substantiates the need for a significant adjustment in the understanding of the balance of private and public interests, which is the basis of civil law regulation.

The 19Th Century

The purpose of the study is to determine the basis of the occurrence and the legal nature of the obligation of a representative without authority in case of refusal to approve the contract conducted by him. To achieve this purpose, the author turns to the history of para. 1 p. 1 and p. 3 of Art. 183 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation and identifies the theoretical model that underlies these prescriptions. The legal regulation of the obligation of the representative was borrowed by the domestic legislator from the draft and the final text of the German BGB. The prescriptions for this undertaking were formed as a result of a heated debate that unfolded in the second half of the 19th century among German civil law experts. They developed the basic theories of an obligation of a representative without authority: a theory of tort liability, a theory of obligation from a guarantee agreement, a theory of pre-contractual liability and a theory of obligation to protect trust. The last theory turned out to be the most viable and was enshrined in the final version of § 179 BGB, and therefore in the paragraphs of Art. 183 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation. The essence of this theory is that if a representative without authority concludes a contract on behalf of the principal who then refuses to approve, then a representative has an obligation to compensate a third party (counterparty) for property damage; this obligation follows from the prescription of the law and the trust of a third party in the existence of authority that the representative shows, regardless of the representative’s fault. The obligation of the representative without authority is not a tort liability or obligation from the guarantee agreement; this obligation is precontractual in nature, however, it cannot be considered as liability for unfair negotiation, as it arises without the fault of the representative. The theory of obligation to protect trust has not been well covered in Russian literature. The few domestic authors who answer the question about the basis of the occurrence and the legal nature of the obligation of a representative are supporters of the theory of tort liability, the theory of obligation from a guarantee agreement or the theory of pre-contractual liability.

The article considers the essence of the category of guilt as one of the grounds for prohibiting (suspending) activities under Russian civil law. The article analyzes the shortcomings ofthe legal definition of guilt stipulated in article 401 of the civil code of the Russian Federation due to the mixing of objectivist and subjectivist concepts. Based on the analysis of the judicial practice of the application of Article 1065 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, a conclusion was made about the unsatisfactory state of law enforcement in establishing guilt in a person’s behavior. Monuments of Roman law are studied for the purpose of revealing the category of guilt. A brief overview of approaches to the concept of guilt in the civil legislation of a number of foreign countries and in the Model rules of European Private Law is given. The positions of the Supreme Court of Austria and the countries of the Anglo-Saxon legal family are given on this issue. The article briefly covers the integral theory developed By E. A. Kramer for the objective assessment of individuals ‘ discretion in conducting any activity that may entail adverse consequences for third parties. In connection with the special functions and purpose of the Institute of responsibility in private law and institute for the prevention of harm, the conclusion is defended that it is unacceptable to directly borrow the category of guilt from criminal law to civil law. The article substantiates the need to apply the objectivist concept of guilt in civil law as a deviation from the standard of behavior of an ordinary reasonable participant in the turnover, taking into account individual characteristics of a person. Taking into account the provisions of the current civil legislation on liability, a conclusion was made about the possibility of applying a simplified scheme of forms and types of guilt, including when deciding on the establishment of an injunction. The question of the ratio of guilt, considered from the point of view of the objectivist approach, and wrongfulness is touched upon.

Статья посвящена анализу нового института гражданского права «заверения об обстоятельствах», нашедшего легальное отражение в гражданском законодательстве РФ только после принятия Федерального закона РФ от 08.03.2015 № 42-ФЗ «О внесении изменений в часть первую Гражданского кодекса Российской Федерации». При этом с появлением данного института возникла полемика относительно его правовой природы и отнесения к институту преддоговорной ответственности как его разновидности или как одной из гарантий обязательственных правоотношений. Актуальность темы обусловлена еще и анализом возможности реализации института заверений об обстоятельствах в контексте Федерального закона от 05.04.2013 № 44 «О контрактной системе в сфере закупок товаров, работ, услуг для обеспечения государственных и муниципальных нужд» в части защиты интересов заказчиков и одного из элементов антикоррупционной составляющей. Ряд правоприменителей категорически не допускают возможности реализации исследуемого института в контрактной системе. Кроме того, в правоприменительной сфере возникает дискуссионный вопрос относительно интерпретации заверений об обстоятельствах и их применении в обязательственных правоотношениях. В статье предпринята попытка определить правовую природу института заверений об обстоятельствах и ответственности за недостоверные заверения, а также обосновать возможность его реализации в контрактной системе в сфере закупок товаров, работ и услуг для обеспечения государственных и муниципальных нужд, в том числе для нужд уголовно-исполнительной системы. This article is devoted to the analysis of a new institution of civil law “assurances of circumstances”, which was legally reflected in the civil legislation of the Russian Federation only after the adoption of the Federal law of the Russian Federation from 08.03.2015 № 42-FZ “On amendments to part one of the Civil code of the Russian Federation”. At the same time, with the appearance of this institution, there has been a lot of controversy regarding its legal nature and the attribution to the institution of pre-contractual liability as its variety or as one of the guarantees of legal obligations. The relevance of the topic due to the analysis of the feasibility of the Institute for assurances in the context of the Federal law of 05.04.2013 № 44 “On contract system in procurement of goods, works, services for state and municipal needs” in terms of protecting the interests of customers and one of the elements of the anti-corruption component. A number of law enforcement agencies categorically do not allow the possibility of implementing the research Institute in the contract system. In addition, in the law enforcement sphere, there is a debatable issue regarding the interpretation of assurances about circumstances and their application in legal relations of obligations. The article attempts to understand the concept and legal nature of the institution of assurances about circumstances and to justify the possibility of its implementation in the contract system in the field of procurement of goods, works and services for state and municipal needs, including for the needs of the penal system.

The article is devoted to the analysis of the civil law concept of private international law, which comes down to the fact that private international law regulates private law relations: civil, family and labour, if they comprise a foreign element (foreign citizenship, foreign affiliation of a subject of law, etc). The authors provide arguments that private international law is an independent branch of law and legal studies; civil law concept of private international law is based on two methods of regulation of private law relations with a foreign element: conflict of laws (national and standardized through uniform rules contained in international conventions) and a substantive (standardized) element. The authors reveal the role in the development of the science of private international law played by professor L. A. Luntz, Laureate of the USSR State prize, who worked in the Institute of Legislation and Comparative Law (ILCL) in 1939—1979. Special attention is paid to the contribution of L. A. Luntz and his successors — the ILCL researchers V. P. Zvekov, A. L. Makovskiy, N. I. Marysheva, O. N. Sadikov — to the formation and development of the Soviet and Russian legislation in the field of private international law, including drafting of the Bill on Private International Law and International Civil Procedure (1990), drafting and adoption of the respective sections within the Fundamental Principles of Civil Legislation of the USSR (1961, 1991), the Fundamental Principles of Marriage and Family Legislation of the USSR (1968), the RSFSR Civil Code (1964), the Marriage and Family Code of the RSFSR (1969), the present Civil Code of the Russian Federation (Part III, 2001), the Family Code of the Russian Federation (1995), the Maritime Code of the Russian Federation (1999), the Civil Procedure Code of the Russian Federation (2002).

Exclusive Right

The Civil Code of the Russian Federation provides an opportunity to the rightholder in case of infringement of his exclusive copyright and related rights to demand in court instead of compensation for damages incurred by him to pay compensation. In most cases, when the rightholder applies for judicial protection of his violated rights, he requires the recovery of compensation. This article discusses the legal nature of compensation as a legal remedy of an exclusive right and its primary functions. When writing an article, a comparative law research method is used. As a result of the analysis of russian and foreign legislation, as well as judicial practice, it was found that compensation, in addition to restorative, also has a preventive function and can be considered an analogue of statutory damages.

Introduction: of all the instruments of protection of subjective property rights, the fundamental role belongs to the institute of indemnification, whose regulatory framework needs to be clarified. The purpose of this paper is comparative description of the important legal aspects of the main type of property liability. In accordance with the purpose, the following objectives were set: to determine the extent to which legal provisions of general regulations on obligations laid down in the Civil Code of the Russian Federation should or can be applied to claims for damages; to formulate the proposals for improving the indemnification court practice. Methods: the methodological framework of the study consists of specific scholarly (special legal, comparative legal) and general scholarly (problem-theory, teleological, and system) methods of analysis. The main trends in the development of the institute of liability and the debatable aspects reflected in the Russian and foreign documents were studied with the use of the problem-theory and system analysis methods. Results: being a summary overview of the available knowledge and comparative regulatory material, this paper allowed us to articulate the ideas aimed at improving the fundamental principles of legal regulation of relations in the sphere of protection of subjective rights, in particular indemnification. Discussion: indemnification is a developing major institute of civil law, invariably attracting the attention of scholars around the world. Lately it has taken on special significance and some of its aspects have become a focus of a separate field of scholarly discussion. Many Russian scholars have written about indemnification in a comparative aspect: О. N. Sadikov, V. V. Baibak and others [2, 15]; this paper focuses on the reform of Russian law of obligations and the new provisions of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation of March 8, 2015 and reveals the consequences of the reform for the institute of damages, discussing this topic in detail as a separate standalone issue. Conclusion: we hope that this paper will contribute to further discussion in the civil law doctrine of the ideas and conclusions presented.

The Law

The paper substantiates the author’s proposal to amend the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, which is explained by the gradual creation of a digital economy in the Russian Federation. In particular, the author has examined and solved the following problems of the legal regulation of civil law relations in the context of digitalization: the problem of identifying the object of digital rights, the problem of legal qualification of the electronic form of the transaction, the problem of using a smart contract in civil transactions, the problem of using blockchain technology to create mixed payment systems. The paper proposes a non-standard solution to each of these problems—the author has prepared a draft federal law "On Amendments to Parts One and Two of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation in terms of legal relations arising in cyberspace." In particular, the author proposes to define digital rights as the absolute and relative rights to digital property named in this capacity, the content and conditions of implementation of which are determined by the law and the rules of the information system (protocol) that meets the characteristics established by the law. In the author’s opinion, an electronic document can exist in the form of a machine information file of any format or a computer program that meets the characteristics of an electronic document.

To Come

The existence of extraordinary circumstances, which should be understood as circumstances unavoidable under these conditions, constitutes the condition for requisition. The Civil Code of the Russian Federation gives state bodies a certain freedom in carrying out requisitions, as it is hardly possible to list all exceptional circumstances when additional equipment or other property will be required both to prevent the development of emergencies and to deal with their consequences.Civil law confiscation involves the termination of private property and the emergence of state ownership of confiscated property. Therefore, it is impossible to treat as confiscation the seizure of tengible media according to Para. 4 of Art. 1252 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, because they were produced in violation of the law and, therefore, ownership has not arisen. The paper also substantiates the conclusion that nationalization requires relevant property to come not into the property of the State, but into the national property. In the author’s opinion, the currently existing State property does not contain any hints of national property, and it can be stated that the Russian people even more than previously are removed from the property of the State and are excluded from State responsibility. Nationwide property serves as a foundation of the civil society.
