Mediation has represented and represents an alternative for state justice that impartially solves a conflict between two parties. Mediation, as it’s generally known today, appeared in Europe in ‘90s through the American branch, and imposed through Directive CE / 52/2008 of the European Parliament, that all Member States need to take steps in including the mediation in civil and commercial cases where issues appear most frequently related to the parties' affiliation to different and cross-border legal systems. In Romania, the mediation institution operates based on Law no. 196/2006 in regards to mediation and mediator profession, and in the Republic of Moldova based on Law no. 137/2015 in regards to mediation. I firmly believe that that the procedure for mediation in commercial disputes needs to be adapted, considering the fact that is a special type of mediation, as the mediator is required to possess certain knowledge and qualities specific to this field. I, therefore, consider that the specific legislation is insufficiently regulated, and due to this context, the institution of commercial mediation is in a vegetative state at this moment.

Mediation has represented and represents an alternative for state justice that impartially solves a conflict between two parties. Mediation used to exist from the early times of the civilization, and in the form we see it nowadays appeared in Europe ‘90s through the American way, as through Directive CE / 52/2008 of the European Parliament, all the Member States needed to take steps in including the mediation in civil and commercial cases where issues appear most frequently related to the parties’ affiliation to different and cross-border legal systems. In Romania, the mediation institution operates based on Law no. 196/2006 in regards to mediation and mediator profession, and in the Republic of Moldova based on Law no. 137/2015 in regards to mediation. We consider that analyzing the history of the mediation institution could help strengthen citizens’ trust in this way of resolving voluntary and alternative disputes through a mediator.

This paper provides an overview of activities of the European Commission for establishing a single European maritime transport space and indicates whether and to what extent the adopted strategy documents have established their operations in practice. Directive 2010/65/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council on reporting formalities for ships arriving in and/or departing from ports of the Member States and repealing Directive 2002/6/ EC, as well as Directive 2002/59/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council establishing the Community vessel traffic monitoring and information system, which represent significant legislative achievements of the European Union in the process of reducing administrative burdens to which ships are exposed in the maritime transport, are particularly analyzed. Reasons for amending Directive 2002/59/EC are especially explained. In the last part of the paper, authors review the achievements of the Republic of Croatia regarding the implementation of measures for the establishment of a single European maritime transport space. Based on the results of a comparative overview of solutions contained in the Directives and Croatian bylaws, authors point to the existence of non-compliance and to the need for further action.

The European proceedings in cross-border cases, to which the European order for payment and the European Small Claims Procedures belong, were introduced into Polish legal system on 12 December 2008 as an alternative to the existing proceedings provided for in the laws of the Member States. The base for the application of the European Small Claims Procedure is Regulation (EC) No 861/2007 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 July 2007, establishing the European Small Claims Procedure. The Polish legislator decided to place a modest regulation of these procedures amongst separate proceedings. To approximate the subject issue, the nature of the European Small Claims Procedure needs to be considered along with its relations with selected separate proceedings (such as order for payment proceedings, writ of payment proceedings, electronic writ of payment proceedings, simplified procedure and European order for payment procedure), the nature of which justifies including them in the group of accelerated and simplified proceedings.

Abstract Legal requirements for protection of the natural environment are continually being strengthened because of increased human damage to environmental resources. The applicable regulations of the Polish Penal Code towards protection of the environment were considerably amended in 2011 also to ensure implementation of European Parliament and European Council directives 2008 / 99 / EC, issued on the 19th November 2008. In addition, these changes also involve cross-border infringements, so that perpetrators cannot avoid retribution for actions committed under different provisions in individual Member States.

My paper on the Corpus Juris project in the first volume of this Yearbook closed by saying, in effect, “Watch this space!” At the end it told how, at the time of writing, the European Parliament and Commission had re-engaged the original team that drafted the proposals, plus some others, and constituted them as a Comité du suivi with instructions to find out how hard or easy it would be to integrate the Corpus scheme into the existing legal systems of the Member States. And it also told how the House of Lords Select Committee on the European Communities had begun to carry out a study of the Corpus project.

With the creation of the European Union (EU), the signing of the Maastricht Agreement, the introduction of the single market and freedom of movement of labor and the introduction of the Euro as a common currency, the problem of cross-border road transport of cash and valuables between eurozone members arose. This is because almost all EU member states had more or less different solutions and practices for this type of transport. The EU tried to solve the problem by adopting Regulation No. 1214/2011 on professional cross-border road transport of cash between Euro-area Member States. The mentioned Regulation successfully solved many problems related to this issue, such as: issuance of appropriate permits (licences), maximum duration of delivery, rights and obligations of teams, necessary knowledge and skills of security staff, carrying weapons in the host country, type and equipment of vehicles, mutual information, etc. Although the intention was to establish a unified system of cross-border money transport, in addition to significant progress in the functioning of private security, it can be said that because some countries have retained their specifics, a unified system with the same rules has not been fully established. The paper presents and deals with the advantages and disadvantages of a single system (securing) of cross - border transport of cash under the said Regulation. The Republic of Serbia, as a country on the path to EU membership, has a special interest in getting to know and preparing in time for the harmonization of its legal solutions and practices which regulate the mentioned area (activity) of private security.
