The method of civil law: regulation, evaluation or modeling?

Introduction: the paper discusses the problems of reevaluating the methods of civil regulation. The author argues with the researchers who speak in favor of rejecting the use of the term “regulation” in a private law context and replacing it with modeling or evaluating public relations regarding property and non-materialized goods. The author of the paper believes that the issue of replacing the term “regulation” with “modeling” or “evaluation” is a dispute over terms. Law, as a social phenomenon, regulates public relations; however, the degree of influence of law on public relations depends on the national concept of legal regulation and the recognition of legal statuses for subjects of legal relations.
