Theoretical and applied research of the features of the legal status of the subjects of civil law remains debatable today. Doctrinal and legislative analysis of this subject points to unresolved issues in this area. In particular, the provision on defining the state as a party to civil law remains controversial. There is no consensus on the definition of individuals and legal entities as subjects of civil law among scholars. Furthermore, the legal regulation of certain types of entities is somewhat unsystematic and chaotic. This is largely due to the insufficient development of theoretical issues related to the subjects of civil law. The above issues determine the relevance of the study of the features of the legal status of subjects of civil law. The purpose of the study is to investigate the features of the legal status of subjects of civil law based on doctrinal and legislative analysis. The study is based on a systematic approach, which lies in studying a complex system of relationships between subjects of civil law. Furthermore, the study is based on the laws and principles of dialectics, which contribute to the study of the legal status of the subjects of civil law. Systemic and structural-functional analysis was used to comprehensively describe the legal status of subjects of civil law. The historical method contributed to the study of the evolution of research on the subjects of civil law. The formal legal method helped identify the special features of the provisions of regulations concerning the subjects of civil law. With the help of the comparative legal method, the study analysed the provisions of the Civil Code of Ukraine in terms of regulation of subjects of civil law and such regulation was compared with other countries. The study defined the concepts and types of subjects of civil law and considered the features of the legal status of individuals, legal entities, as well as the state as a special participant of civil law. Special attention was paid to the historical analysis of the development of approaches to the definition of subjects of law, starting with Roman law

The article considers the definition of the insured, which is contained in the Law of Ukraine «On collection and accounting of a single contribution to compulsory state social insurance» and based on this it is concluded that it includes only the persons and the main obligation of the insured – payment of insurance premium and does not establish additional or qualifying features that the insured must have. Given that the social security insurance mechanism was borrowed from civil law, the author examined the definition of the insurer from the standpoint of civil law and concluded that the presence of insurance interest is a prerequisite for determining a person as an insured and proposed his own definition of insurance interest – a certain property interest related to the need to suffer material loss in connection with damage to life, health and ability to work of the insured person as a result of an accident or occupational disease that occurs during the performance or in connection with the performance of certain work in the interests of the insured. The author emphasizes that the insurers in the relationship of social insurance against accidents at work and occupational diseases can be primarily employers. Based on the results of the analysis of the definition of the employer in various regulations, it was concluded that there is a certain inconsistency in science and legislation regarding this term, and therefore the legislative definition of the employer needs to be specified. This made it possible to develop proposals for making the necessary changes to certain regulations that contain this term. The concept and features of a single social contribution are researched. Peculiarities of insurance of persons performing works on the terms of civil law contracts are analyzed. Emphasis is placed on the unresolved issue of the customer - an individual who uses the work of other individuals under a civil contract, but without registering them as a business entity. It is believed that such persons should also act as payers of the single social contribution, and therefore it is necessary to amend the Law of Ukraine «On the collection and accounting of the single contribution to the obligatory state social insurance».

What I propose in the present article are some theoretical adjustments for a more coherent answer to the legal “status question” of artificial intelligence (AI) systems. I arrive at those by using the new “bundle theory” of legal personhood, together with its accompanying conceptual and methodological apparatus as a lens through which to look at a recent such answer inspired from German civil law and named Teilrechtsfähigkeit or partial legal capacity. I argue that partial legal capacity is a possible solution to the status question only if we understand legal personhood according to this new theory. Conversely, I argue that if indeed Teilrechtsfähigkeit lends itself to being applied to AI systems, then such flexibility further confirms the bundle theory paradigm shift. I then go on to further analyze and exploit the particularities of Teilrechtsfähigkeit to inform a reflection on the appropriate conceptual shape of legal personhood and suggest a slightly different answer from the bundle theory framework in what I term a “gradient theory” of legal personhood.

The article offers the author’s vision of such a form of non-profit organization as a state corporation with a special legal status. As a result of the analysis, the author comes to the conclusion that it is permissible to recognize a state corporation as an independent subject of civil law relations, since state corporations combine the characteristics of both a legal entity, in particular, the autonomy of property, independent liability for obligations, etc., and the institution of the state, endowed with authority. The analysis of the federal legislation allowed the author to say that a special legal regime applies to modern Russian state-owned corporations, which provides for their exemption from certain duties and granting certain rights and powers. In this regard, the question is raised about the development of recommendations for improving legislation in the field under study by excluding Article 7.1 from the Federal Law, January, 12 № 7-FZ “On Non-Profit Organizations”, and introducing its content into the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, adding it to Article 124.1 “State Corporation”.

The following article deals with the issue of cohabitation in the Slovak Republic. An institute, that while does not formally exist in Slovak legal order, still has certain legal consequences. Slovak family law is facing a comprehensive transformation, so it is expected, that many of the issues outlined in the submitted article will be properly dealt with in the expected recodification of Slovak civil law, that will include family law as well. As far as the current legal framework however, it leaves much to be desired. There is no legal institute which would be an alternative to traditional marriage, nor an institute which would comprehensively cover the legal status, rights and duties of cohabitants. This is due to the traditional nature of Slovak family law, the way the institute of marriage and family are dealt with in our legal order. While a comprehensive legal framework of cohabitation is missing, it cannot be said that the Slovak legislation ignores cohabitation – there are many legal consequences in various fields of law that relate to the rights of cohabitants. The article highlights the gaps in these areas as well as potential opportunities for future legislation. The research was carried out within the framework of the Central European Professors’ Network coordinated by the Ferenc Mádl Institute of Comparative Law.

Crowdwork, a new and dynamic form of employment with growing importance, has been a subject of numerous legal and political discussions for some time. A central point of discussion is how a certain level of legal protection for crowdworkers can be achieved within such a model. To clarify this, the legal status of crowdworkers needs to be determined: Is a crowdworker an employee, an employee-like person / homeworker, or self-employed? In the civil law sector, there is also the question of whether a crowdworker is a consumer or an entrepreneur.
