Description
<<A Synthesis of Polish Law>> is the first systematic view of the Polish law as a whole. This collection includes papers dealing with the history, philosophy and theory of law; material law; and procedural law. Some concern universal issues and they have been included here either because of their effect on Polish regulations (Roman law) or due to the relations resulting from external contractual obligations (International law). This book contains an introduction in English, French, and German, as well as French and German abstracts.
Reviews / Votes
<<It presents the richness of the autonomous, excellent and creative legal thought, the formation of the institutions of public and private law throughout the period of the more than one thousand years' history of the Polish State and the Polish nation.>> (Prof. Dr. habil. Jerzy Markiewicz. The John Paul II Catholic University of Lublin)<<The vast, multi-disciplinary range of subjects included in the present publication gives it an innovative character. The structure accepted in the work presents the continuity of the development of Polish law and its relation to the legal systems of European countries. This makes it possible to illustrate the process of the tradition and elements of Roman law penetrating into the Polish system of private law, and to present the interrelation of Polish law with European law, both in the sphere of private-legal and public-legal solutions.>> (Prof. Dr. habil. Maria Dragun-Gertner. Nicolaus Copernicus University of Torun)
<<[...] What deserves special appreciation is the clarity of the authors' reflections, the fluent style of narration, the precision of the language, all of which makes it understandable, interesting and useful reading, accessible to many readers.>> (Prof. Dr. habil. Alicja Pomorska. Maria Curie-Sklodowska University of Lublin)
