Transfers of shares in the private law of the Province of Quebec raise numerous questions. The rights of the bona fide transferee for value are not clearly settled by the Civil Code and the provincial Companies Act is silent on the issue. In the first part of this article, the author deals with the state of the civil law on the question, illustrating the discussion with a study of the rights of a minor to proceed against bona fide transferees generally and more specifically, under articles 297 and 1487 C.C. In the second part of the article, the question is viewed from the point of view of the federal legislation. Part VI of the Canada Business Corporations Act is studied in detail in so far as the rights of the minor are modified by the statute. This useful exercise indicates clearly the preference given by the federal Act to bona fide purchasers of securities and the rather precarious position of the true owner in questions of conflicting claims. Viewed from a larger perspective, this study reveals an important trend in recent legislative enactments : where traditional rules tend to protect property rights (nemo dat...), contemporary legislations seem to favour unduly the security of commercial transactions.

The article highlights the role of prof. A.L. Makovsky in the creation of the new Civil Code of the Russian Federation of 1994–2006, as well as in the organization of the practice of its application and the development of the Concept for the Development of Civil Legislation of the Russian Federation in 2009. Special attention is paid to the activities of A.L. Makovsky on the preparation of the Fourth Part of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation and the concept of intellectual rights enshrined by it, opposing the traditional archaic concept of “intellectual property”. The importance of the need to increase the attention of civil law to the issue of protecting the rights and interests of citizens and other weakest participants in civil legal relations in their opposition to the interests of large companies striving to take a privileged position in property turnover is shown. From this point of view, the author substantiates the need for a significant adjustment in the understanding of the balance of private and public interests, which is the basis of civil law regulation.

The article considers the essence of the category of guilt as one of the grounds for prohibiting (suspending) activities under Russian civil law. The article analyzes the shortcomings ofthe legal definition of guilt stipulated in article 401 of the civil code of the Russian Federation due to the mixing of objectivist and subjectivist concepts. Based on the analysis of the judicial practice of the application of Article 1065 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, a conclusion was made about the unsatisfactory state of law enforcement in establishing guilt in a person’s behavior. Monuments of Roman law are studied for the purpose of revealing the category of guilt. A brief overview of approaches to the concept of guilt in the civil legislation of a number of foreign countries and in the Model rules of European Private Law is given. The positions of the Supreme Court of Austria and the countries of the Anglo-Saxon legal family are given on this issue. The article briefly covers the integral theory developed By E. A. Kramer for the objective assessment of individuals ‘ discretion in conducting any activity that may entail adverse consequences for third parties. In connection with the special functions and purpose of the Institute of responsibility in private law and institute for the prevention of harm, the conclusion is defended that it is unacceptable to directly borrow the category of guilt from criminal law to civil law. The article substantiates the need to apply the objectivist concept of guilt in civil law as a deviation from the standard of behavior of an ordinary reasonable participant in the turnover, taking into account individual characteristics of a person. Taking into account the provisions of the current civil legislation on liability, a conclusion was made about the possibility of applying a simplified scheme of forms and types of guilt, including when deciding on the establishment of an injunction. The question of the ratio of guilt, considered from the point of view of the objectivist approach, and wrongfulness is touched upon.

The presence of a certain number of persons participating in the obligation of the entities of the obligation (creditor and debtor) is a characteristic feature of the binding legal relationship. Scientific approaches and approaches outstanding in the normative legal acts on understanding the concept of «child» have been analyzed. It is proved that in the Civil Code of Ukraine the concept of «child» is used only in some articles (part 2 of article 25, part 1 of article 35, part 3 of article 72, part 2 of article 285, part 3 of article 295, part 1.4 of article 1200 part 1 of article 1242, etc.) at the same time this category is used regarding, that is, when determining the question regarding the legal status of a conceived and unborn child, regarding the personal non-property rights of individuals, regarding the issue of compensation for harm, hereditary legal relations, etc. It is justified that civil law does not identify the concept of «child» with a person before the age of 18. The peculiarities of the child’s participation in binding legal relations, in particular in contractual and non-contractual relations, were studied. The characteristics of the child’s participation in contractual binding legal relations are defined: 1. The child is subject to contractual obligations until he or she reaches the age of 14, as he or she has the right to engage in petty domestic transactions; 2. The child may be subject to contractual obligations at the age of 14, and the scope and capacity of the child is increased; 3. The child has the same rights as other subjects of binding legal relations. 4. Obligatory legal relations involving the child arise in relation to property and personal non-property benefits; 5. Legal facts are the basis for legal relations involving the child. The legislative approach is disclosed regarding the peculiarities of the participation of the child, namely a minor and juvenile person, in non-contractual obligations, in particular in obligations for compensation for harm.

The article explores the idea that public administration can act as an independent means of protection of civil rights, complementing such tools as civil law types of protection of rights, which consist in proving the legality of possession of the property itself. Protection of property rights is traditionally considered a field of private law, built on the principles of respect for private property, equality of arms, independence of the court and a fair settlement of legal disputes. It is stated that, unlike civil law methods of protection of rights, public administration as a method of protection of rights is aimed not at protecting the issue of legality of possession but at protecting the registration record from wrongful distortion. A large array of rules on the protection of private property is of a public law nature and is associated with the administration of relevant records. It is argued that from the point of view of protection of property rights, in particular property rights to real estate and their derivatives - the rights of the mortgagee, rights of claim, which are notarized, etc., the activities of state bodies are an organizational means of protecting such rights in the form of public administration. Publicity means that any decisions regarding changes in registered rights are made in public and, in accordance with the procedures provided by law, become public property, including stakeholders and an indefinite number of entities. It is determined that the essence of administration is that rights are protected on a procedural basis and the need for certain legal preconditions for making a management decision on changes in registered rights cannot be replaced by other legal preconditions, or a decision cannot be made without sufficient legal grounds.

The right of ownership, like property itself, occupies one of the main places in public life. Statutory regulation of property relations in the Republic of Kazakhstan existed throughout the entire period of statehood formation. Today, property relations are regulated by the norms of various branches of law. But civil law regulation occupies one of the most important places in the system of regulatory regulation. This article deals with a comprehensive analysis of the main legal concepts, such as property, owner, subject of property rights, as well as forms and types of property, the grounds for the emergence and termination of property rights and ways to protect and protect the absolute right of the owner. A certain thing may belong to several persons as common property. In this case, the right of ownership is distributed among several owners (co-owners). The totality of legal norms on common property forms the institution of common property law. The purpose of this work is a comprehensive analysis of the main legal concepts, such as property, owner and subject of property rights, as well as forms and types of property, the basis for the emergence and termination of property rights and the definition of ways to protect and protect the absolute right of the owner. The means of achieving this goal is the study of the works of Kazakh legal scholars, the study of the analysis of practical materials. The article uses the following methods: comparative-legal, system-structural, formal-logical, as well as the method of system analysis. The legislation of Kazakhstan provides for two subjects of State property that have the right to act on their own behalf: the Republic of Kazakhstan as a whole (in respect of property constituting republican property) and the administrative – territorial unit (in respect of property constituting municipal property). That is, in civil circulation, data are carriers of state property rights. Depending on the tasks performed, the State exercises the powers of the owner on behalf of one of the specified entities. The Republic of Kazakhstan and the administrative-territorial unit are not legal entities. However, unless otherwise provided by legislative acts, they are subject to the rules governing the participation of legal entities in relations regulated by civil law. The state and administrative-territorial unit, as special subjects, have all the rights of subjects of civil legal relations and are limited in legal personality only by the current legislation.

The legal person, now a distinct institution in its own right, regulated as such in the Romanian Civil Code, is the result of a long process of modernisation of Romanian legislation, but also of its harmonisation with international regulations which unanimously recognise the legal person as a subject of law. The notion of legal person was born in private law and has been and is used in all branches of law. Legal persons are distinct subjects in civil law or commercial law legal relationships. The legal person is a subject of law with a wide scope in the legal circuit. Commercial companies, autonomous companies, companies, are participants as legal persons in private law relationships. Legal persons are the entities provided for by law, as well as any other legally-established organisations which, although not declared by law to be legal persons, fulfill all the conditions provided for by the Civil Code and the relevant legislation. The present article aims to present the specific rules for the establishment and functioning of a legal person, as well as issues related to classifications and constituent elements, and to their liability for legal acts or deeds performed.

The existence of extraordinary circumstances, which should be understood as circumstances unavoidable under these conditions, constitutes the condition for requisition. The Civil Code of the Russian Federation gives state bodies a certain freedom in carrying out requisitions, as it is hardly possible to list all exceptional circumstances when additional equipment or other property will be required both to prevent the development of emergencies and to deal with their consequences.Civil law confiscation involves the termination of private property and the emergence of state ownership of confiscated property. Therefore, it is impossible to treat as confiscation the seizure of tengible media according to Para. 4 of Art. 1252 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, because they were produced in violation of the law and, therefore, ownership has not arisen. The paper also substantiates the conclusion that nationalization requires relevant property to come not into the property of the State, but into the national property. In the author’s opinion, the currently existing State property does not contain any hints of national property, and it can be stated that the Russian people even more than previously are removed from the property of the State and are excluded from State responsibility. Nationwide property serves as a foundation of the civil society.

Point of view: One of the basic concepts that underlies law as a phenomenon, as well as private law as one of the two areas of law, is the concept of natural law. This concept presupposes that rights and freedoms are an inalienable good of every person, regardless of the will of any external institutions. The ideas of natural law have been expressed in the concept of private law (the fundamental principles of private law are such principles as justice, good faith, reasonableness, dispositiveness, legal certainty, inadmissibility of interference in private affairs, inviolability of property rights, and freedom of contract). Object: The subject of the study is the problems of reforming of private law in modern conditions. The object of research is the social relations that arise in the plane of «person-person» and «state-person» in modern transformation processes. Methodology: The research methodology is formed by methods of analysis, synthesis, and modeling. Additionally, logical-legal, comparative-legal forecasting methods are used. The authors of the article tried to draw a parallel between the concepts of natural law, Roman law and private law. Results and discussion: An analysis of these concepts revealed that each of them is an integral part of the concept of modern Western civilization. At the same time, in modern conditions of pandemic, deglobalization, regionalization, collapse of human rights and the very concept of Western civilization, which is based on the ideas of humanism, liberalism, absolute human rights, inviolability of property rights and respect for privacy, are under threat.
