Abstract

There has been a professional debate going on in the Czech Republic for several years concerning the future conception of civil law and the related issue of drafting a new code to replace the existing regulation, which is no longer suitable. There is a general agreement that the deficiencies of the current regulation in the field of civil law have to be dealt with not by means of further amendments but by means of "a structural change, i.e. a new co­dification of private law as a whole". This is because the current Civil Code and the entire conception of private law significantly deviates from the standards of the continental legal culture as well as the local pre-WWII legal traditions.
