In this article, the author highlights the main scenarios on the basis of which the coexistence of two seemingly similar legal institutions could be built – a civil set-off and a set-off made when the court satisfies counterclaims and initial claims (a scenario based on the displacement of one institution by another; a scenario based on the permissibility of parallel implementation of each of the institutions; a scenario based on a mixed model of implementation of each of the institutions). To identify the scenario that best meets the needs of the turnover and the goals of effective judicial protection, the differences between these legal institutions are analyzed (the distinction is made according to specific criteria that either manifest themselves differently, or are present in one structure, but are absent in another). At the same time, the analyzed legal institutions (civil offset and offset produced by the satisfaction of the court counter and initial claims) are distinguished from similar legal phenomena – automatic setoff, offset by the will of a third person, eventual set-off, objections on the surrender made by the defendant during the trial and addressed the court, and the offset produced by the court in the absence of will of the disputing parties in the resolution of the question of legal costs and making a decision about a bilateral restitution.

In the article, the author continues to distinguish between a civil-legal offset and a set-off made when the court satisfies a counterclaim and initial claims. As a criterion, recognition is taken as an act of will, proceeding respectively from the compensator (the person to whom the application for set-off is addressed) and the defendant in the counterclaim. The article analyzes the anticipated and “double-edged” recognition. The author substantiates the admissibility of using the mechanism of convalidation (cure) of a defective transaction for cases when the corresponding expression of will is addressed to the court without presenting an independent claim for recognizing the transaction as valid. The issues related to the determination of the moment from which the transaction is considered cured, the content of the convalidated contract, as well as the legal consequences of the subsequent judicial discrediting of the convalidated transaction on the grounds related to its impugnability are considered.

In the article, the author continues to distinguish between the civil-legal set-off and the set-off made when the court satisfies the counterclaim and initial claims. As a criterion, recognition is taken as an act of will, coming respectively from the compensator (the person to whom the statement of set-off is addressed) and the defendant in the counterclaim. Judicial and non-judicial confessions are analyzed. With regard to judicial recognition, the conclusion is justified that, depending on the type of process and the existence of rules on mandatory professional judicial representation, it will be either ordinary evidence or a basis for exemption from proof, and in some cases also entail certain substantive consequences. Individual cases of so-called qualified recognition are considered (discrepancy in quantitative characteristics; discrepancy in relation to the subject or object of the legal relationship; recognition of another legal relationship; notification to the court of two or more facts, some of which correspond to the interests of the procedural opponent, and the other part – to the interests of the recognizer; discrepancy in the qualification of legal consequences; recognition of the fact of termination of claims with the reservation that they were subsequently restored on the basis of the realized secondary right).

Although political and legal institutions are essential to any nation's economic development, the forces that have shaped these institutions are poorly understood. Drawing on rich evidence about the development of the American states from the mid-nineteenth to the late twentieth century, this book documents the mechanisms through which geographical and historical conditions—such as climate, access to water transportation, and early legal systems—impacted political and judicial institutions and economic growth. The book shows how a state's geography and climate influenced whether elites based their wealth in agriculture or trade. States with more occupationally diverse elites in 1860 had greater levels of political competition in their legislature from 1866 to 2000. The book also examines the effects of early legal systems. Because of their colonial history, thirteen states had an operational civil-law legal system prior to statehood. All of these states except Louisiana would later adopt common law. By the late eighteenth century, the two legal systems differed in their balances of power. In civil-law systems, judiciaries were subordinate to legislatures, whereas in common-law systems, the two were more equal. Former civil-law states and common-law states exhibit persistent differences in the structure of their courts, the retention of judges, and judicial budgets. Moreover, changes in court structures, retention procedures, and budgets occur under very different conditions in civil-law and common-law states. This book illustrates how initial geographical and historical conditions can determine the evolution of political and legal institutions and long-run growth.

For centuries a mystery has surrounded the meaning of Jesus' term “The Son of Man” in his ministry, and today it is often called “The Son of Man Problem.” Studying “Son of Man” in all of its biblical references, and apocryphal usages, together with insights from the Dead Sea Scrolls, I propose a solution that the idiom means “Priest” or “High Priest,” but most especially “Heavenly High Priest” and is framed in the third person by Jesus because it is expressed as his destiny given by God—it is the Will of God. “The Son of Man” is distinct from Jesus own will, but is the destiny he follows. It is also the use of this term that caused Caiaphas to cry “blasphemy” at Jesus' Sanhedrin trial, who then sent him to Pilate for crucifixion, yet asserting that Jesus proclaimed himself “King of the Jews.” Caiaphas, knew, I believe, that “Son of Man” was synonymous with “High Priest.”

The paper elaborates the problem of the passive side of capacity to act which consists in the ability to receive (or to be an addressee of) the will declarations. Given the absence of an explicit regulation in the Polish civil code, the passive side of capacity to act has lost its attribute of a doctrinal evidence. However, the capacity to act should not be understood in a popular way limiting this concept to its active side only. Such an understanding generates in fact a grievous gap in the Polish civil law.

AbstractThrough the prism of legal history, the author links the circulation of ideas in the eighteenth century between Russia and The Netherlands with Russian-Dutch collaboration at the end of the twentieth century: codification as a tool to provide legal certainly. The concern that the transition in the new Russia of the 1990s to new social and economic models would quickly give rise to legal uncertainty was one of the critical factors pushing for the rebirth of Russian civil law.The collaboration between Russian and Dutch legal scholars and practitioners was grounded in legal reform processes—similar at one level and quite different at another. The author (for the last decade and one-half, a member of this collaborative effort) discusses the similarities and differences in the results flowing from these processes: fundamental principles and formalities being two examples. He also considers the balance between legal certainty and flexibility.The reader is reminded, however, that this has been a two-way street; the case of recent reforms governing the judiciary in Russia is cited by the author as a part of the legal fabric from which The Netherlands might have more to learn from Russian than vice versa.

The article considers the possibility of drawing a passenger carriage contract based on the model of beneficiary contracts. In the case of the conclusion by organizations of carriage contracts for organized groups of passengers, a specific contractual structure in favor of a third party may be applied. Minor children can be considered third parties in whose favor a passenger carriage contract is concluded. The contradictions of the current civil legislation regarding the consideration of minor children as passengers have been revealed. The methodological basis of the study includes the following methods. A systematic approach is used to identify the role and place of the passenger carriage contract in the system of civil law contracts, as well as contradictions in civil law. Comparison is actively used to identify similarities and differences in the legal regulation of the passenger carriage contract under the legislation of various countries. Legal modeling is used in the analysis of specific contractual structures, which are legal models, and in modeling the structure of the passenger carriage contract. Methods of formal and dialectic logic are used as well. The contribution to the study of the issue is associated with the scientific justification of the need to improve the legal structure of the passenger carriage contract according to the contract model in favor of a third party.
