The trans­form­a­tion of civil-law re­la­tions in the con­text of Ukrain­i­an mi­gra­tion to the EU

De­vel­op­ment sum­mary

Viacheslav Vi­taliiovych Krykun stud­ies how mi­gra­tion is trans­form­ing civil-law re­la­tions in the con­text of Ukraine's European in­teg­ra­tion. The art­icle argues that great­er in­ter­na­tion­al mo­bil­ity and more cross-border re­la­tions re­quire Ukrain­i­an civil le­gis­la­tion to be ad­ap­ted to the stand­ards and prin­ciples of EU law. It con­cen­trates on the reg­u­la­tion of family, suc­ces­sion and con­trac­tu­al re­la­tions in­volving a for­eign ele­ment, and on pro­tect­ing the private rights of mi­grants and in­tern­ally dis­placed per­sons.
