The field of private law consists of legal norms that regulate relations between private legal entities, as well as legal relations between public and private legal entities based on voluntary legal acts. It includes, in particular, areas such as contract law, corporate law, tort law, family law, law of obligations and property law, but also areas such as labour law, real estate law, intellectual property law, competition law and consumer law.
The field of private international law covers the part of the legal system that regulates the choice of law in disputes of an international nature, the jurisdiction of courts and the enforcement of judgements.
The field of procedural law covers civil procedure, which deals with how disputes are settled in court or through alternative dispute resolution, and criminal procedure, which deals with how offences regulated by criminal law are investigated, prosecuted and tried in court.
The research project should be relevant to one of the research environments that exist within these fields.
