Controversial aspects of the modern national doctrine of property law
Abstract
The article examines the basic controversial aspects of modern property law in the context of an overview of the Ukrainian legislation and highlights the main ideas of national civil law scholars on certain controversial issues. They consist in identifying the debatable components in the spectrum of research in the field of national property law, assessing further effective areas of scientific research and reviewing the main provisions of civil law on property rights. The author presents the main scientific views and contradictions, as well as the legislator’s views on the concept and features of real rights; reviews the points of view of understanding the grounds for the emergence of real rights and their generalisation and systematisation in the context of current legislation; demonstrates the problems of classification of objects of real rights; considers the problem of classification of real rights; reviews the content of basic legal categories related to the term “protection of real rights” and briefly highlights the approaches to classification of methods and forms of protection of real rights.
It is noted that in general, the issues of property law of Ukraine are well studied, and only some issues need to be investigated in the context of detailing already known studies or solving specific practical legal problems, in particular, legal conflicts and selection of effective methods and forms of property rights protection in a particular case under a particular set of factors or parameters. The main core of the discussions on property law is whether the notion of “thing” belongs to a particular concept and whether a wide range of property relations exists in modern social, economic and legal relations. Therefore, first of all, there are discussions about the need to enshrine in the legislation a clear definition of the content of the category “real right”, to create a detailed classification of both real rights and their objects, as well as to select an effective remedy for violated rights in accordance with the existing parameters (components) of the legal situation, etc.
