Codification Of Civil Law In Azerbaijan: History, Current Situation And Development Perspectives, Natig Khalilov

Journal of Civil Law Studies

This article is devoted to the processes of codification of civil law in Azerbaijan over the past 100 years. During the twentieth century, through the codification of civil law, Azerbaijan has adopted three Civil Codes, far more …

Interpreting The Conditions For Imprévision: The Goals Of The Reform Projects As A Decisive Tool For French And Belgian Courts, Luigi Montefusco Dec 2020

Interpreting The Conditions For Imprévision: The Goals Of The Reform Projects As A Decisive Tool For French And Belgian Courts, Luigi Montefusco

Journal of Civil Law Studies

The codification of the doctrine of imprévision in France and its codification attempt in Belgium is a significant turning point given the historical resistance in both countries towards it. Nevertheless, the fact that the French and Belgian civil codes had remained silent on the issue for more than 200 years poses problems of interpretation, in particular, with the regard to requirements to be met in or-der to trigger imprévision as set forth by new Article 1195 of the French Civil Code and Draft Article 5.77 of Belgian legislative pro-posal No. 3709/1 of April 3, 2019. In the absence of a …

The Birth Mother’S Assent To Adoption And The Limitation Of Autonomy Of Women’S Will In Spanish Law: A Proposal De Lege Ferenda, María Victoria Mayor Del Hoyo Dec 2020

The Birth Mother’S Assent To Adoption And The Limitation Of Autonomy Of Women’S Will In Spanish Law: A Proposal De Lege Ferenda, María Victoria Mayor Del Hoyo

Journal of Civil Law Studies

Even though in Spanish law the act establishing the adoption is judicial in nature, declarations of will have special relevance in the process, since they are a necessary precondition for the adoption. This work focuses on the assent of the biological mother, who is affected by and has an interest in the adoption process, even if not a party to it herself. In this work, the foundation, configuration, and characteristics of this assent are studied, as well as the form of her declaration of will, and the ability of the mother to offer it. Special attention is paid to the …

Medical Civil Liability Without Deterrence: Preliminary Remarks For Future Research, Emiliano Marchisio Sep 2020

Medical Civil Liability Without Deterrence: Preliminary Remarks For Future Research, Emiliano Marchisio

Journal of Civil Law Studies

The traditional deterrence-based paradigm of civil liability may be understood as indirect market regulation, as the risk of incurring liability for damages provides an incentive to invest in safety. Such an approach, however, has proven to be inappropriate in medical civil liability. Extensive literature shows that the increase in the asymmetric protection of patients by extending medical civil liability beyond a certain limit does not improve safety; instead, that strategy determines the adoption of “defensive” techniques (the so-called “defensive medicine”). Paradoxically, this approach leads to a reduction in market efficiency and overall patient safety. The traditional paradigm of medical civil …
