The contribution analyses the evolution of European private law at the cross-road between national private laws and EU law, in order to highlight the tension in the use of comparative law as a legal engineering tool or as a yardstick for critical assessment. It then focuses on European private regulatory law, a form of law that cuts across traditional legal categories, methods and actors, and is related to phenomena of globalization and transnational law.

Abstract
The contribution analyses the evolution of European private law at the cross-road between national private laws and EU law, in order to highlight the tension in the use of comparative law as a legal engineering tool or as a yardstick for critical assessment. It then focuses on European private regulatory law, a form of law that cuts across traditional legal categories, methods and actors, and is related to phenomena of globalization and transnational law. It concludes with a short discussion of the challenges and opportunitiesthat this scenario opens up for comparative law.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione
