The publication of the DCFR has renewed the discussion on the need for a European Property Law. The study published by Von Bar and Drobnig while the DCFR was prepared, underlines the inter-relatedness of contract and property. Nonetheless, the drafters of the DCFR have chosen to deal with specific aspects of property law only. At a European level, however, there are much more initiatives that could also have been dealt with. Examples of these are insolvency, emission trading rights, and matrimonial property law and succession issues. Moreover, even when the CFR would stick to the aspects of property law it deals with now, the effect on the national systems of property law will be severe. This does not only apply to Book IX on security interests, but also to the Book VIII on transfer rules that assumes the existence of an Anwartschaftsrecht in Article VIII.2:307 DCFR. Also Article VIII.1:204 DCFR creates a complex relationship between property rights under the DCFR and property rights that exist at a national level. The numerus clausus principle, as it is adhered to by many European legal systems, will have to be redefined or reshaped depending on the form the CFR will eventually take. Also Book X on Trusts will have effects beyond the mere principles in that book. Holding a right on trust is not generally recognized in civil law systems. Although there are developments in this direction in Germany, France and also Italy, other legal systems, such as Dutch law, remain to resist trusts and trust-like instruments. Also here the effects of the CFR on national property law may be severe. Member States will have to accommodate these European principles. As a result they are deemed to bring their legal systems more into line with each other. Voluntary convergence will result leading to a better functioning internal market and to rules that are likely to apply beyond the mere scope of cross-border transactions. The DCFR therefore already contributes to the making of European Property Law.

When, at the end of 2007, the outline interim edition of the Draft Common Frame of Reference (DCFR) on European Contract Law was presented to the European Commission and at the beginning of 2008 to the European Parliament, the work of the joined network on European Private Law on the review of European Contract became public. From the very beginning of the European Commission's initiatives to revise European private law, as can best be seen from the Green Paper of the European Commission on European Contract Law and the revision of the acquis: the way forward, the focus has been almost exclusively on contract law. However, already in the early proposals of the European Commission, aspects of property law have also been considered. These aspects concerned movable property law in the form of retention of title and possibly property security rights in respect to movables. Property law is part of the internal market. Freedom of ownership forms the basis of a free market economy, including the internal market of the European Union. The free movement of goods, persons, services and capital all require a well functioning property law that does not impose obstacles. If any of these obstacles are found, they can be removed through internal market law, even if these rules are national mandatory property law rules. The publication of the results of the Study Group on a European Civil Code and the Research Group on Existing EC Contract Law brings the need to take a closer look at some of the effects contract law has on the law of property. First, after a short discussion of the interrelatedness of contract and property, a closer look at the CFR from a property law point of view is taken. Second, the principles underlying the CFR are brought into relation with general principles underlying property law, which in most legal systems are the same as the principles underlying contract law. The analysis of this 'core' of the CFR will bring a short analysis of the property aspects that the CFR deals with and the direct effects on the law of property. Finally, an attempt is made to make the indirect influences of the CFR on the law of property visible. This is done through a short quantitative and qualitative survey of the existing EU Consumer Law Acquis that underlies the work of the Research Group on Existing EC Contract Law.

European integration has a growing impact on the property law systems of the EU Member States. The tensions which can be seen are considerably greater than in other areas of private law, given the technically complex and mandatory nature of property law. In this book current developments in European property law (particularly the Draft Common Frame of Reference) are analysed and evaluated, focussing on secured transactions and mortgage law. With contributions by academic and practicing lawyers, containing: Transfer of ownership and good faith acquisition: the rules in the Member States and in Book VIII of the DCFR Secured transactions and the DCFR Registration of intellectual property rights Trusts - from a Common and a Civil lawyer’s perspective The border area between property law and contract law: securities

In this volume, the Study Group and the Acquis Group present the first academic Draft of a Common Frame of Reference (DCFR). The Draft is based in part on a revised version of the Principles of European Contract Law (PECL) and contains Principles, Definitions and Model Rules of European Private Law in an interim outline edition. It covers the books on contracts and other juridical acts, obligations and corresponding rights, certain specific contracts, and non-contractual obligations. One purpose of the text is to provide material for a possible "political" Common Frame of Reference (CFR) which was called for by the European Commission's Action Plan on a More Coherent European Contract Law of January 2003.

The drafters of Book VIII Draft Common Frame of Reference (DCFR) have devoted an impressive amount of time and energy in collecting and publishing comparative data with regard to the existing property law within all Member States of the European Union, and in particular with regard to the subject matter of that Book: acquisition and loss of ownership of movables. This in itself suggests that comparative research played an important role in the drafting process, and this impression is enhanced by the abundance of comparative references and notes in the official Comments to Book VIII. However, the fact that the drafters made an extensive study of the relevant property law of every European legal system does not imply per se that the outcome of their comparative research was taken as guiding in the establishment of the DCFR rules. In order to gain a better insight into the character of the rules of Book VIII, this contribution seeks to answer the question whether comparative arguments really weighed heavily in the drafting of Book VIII: is the 'comparative activism' of its drafters a manifestation of a determination that common or even majority solutions should be the basis of the model rules to be proposed, or did the drafters feel free to propose novel rules even if these were contrary to what applies in most European countries, according to the comparative data they collected and presented themselves? To find out to what extent the choices of the drafters were influenced, if not determined, by their comparative research, it would be helpful to know what comparative methodology they followed. On this, we are told by them that the functional approach of Zweigert and Kötz can hardly be used in property law, for lack of functionally similar solutions, but as a comparative introduction to Book VIII is lacking, the question what other method could take its place is not answered. Therefore, another course of action was needed in order to be able to answer the above mentioned question. This course was found by first of all collecting the scattered general remarks by the principal drafters of Book VIII on the role of their comparative research, and by secondly analyzing what kind of comparative arguments the drafters actually included in the Comments to the provisions of that Book. The results of this approach are as follows. The principal drafters' various publications on the work of the Working group responsible for the drafting of Book VIII DCFR seem to indicate that they gradually began to attach less importance to comparative arguments as the project progressed. Initially (in 2007), it was argued that the information in the National reports was 'vital to our project' and 'the most important basis for our work'. One year on, the Reports were indicated as 'a basis for the working group's own comparative research.' Finally, in 2011, the drafters called the comparative survey 'a main source of inspiration.' It may be that this change of tone is a reflection of a development in the way the drafters perceived the role of other arguments, in particular those based on policy decisions; such a development could well have been the result of the debates on the proposals of the Working group with the members of the Study group. But whatever the cause, a confirmation of the fact that such a development indeed occurred can be found in the Introduction to the final publication, in 2011, of the texts of and Comments and Notes to the provisions of Book VIII. Referring to the 'remarkable differences to be found in European property law regimes' it is stated that 'most articles were drafted according to policy decisions.' The impression is inescapable that comparative arguments gradually had to give way to policy arguments, or at least that the drafters wanted or felt compelled to give this impression. However, none of this is reflected in the Comments to the 29 Articles of the first three Chapters of Book VIII. The drafters indicated in a very large number of instances to have followed common or majority solutions. An explicit rejection of a majority solution occurred in only two instances of little importance. Only when common or majority solutions were absent, the drafters seem to have been more inclined to create novel solutions than to look for leads in the available comparative data. In the handful of instances where the drafters adopted a minority solution, this concerned rules on topics where the European legal systems are strongly divergent (notably good faith acquisition). We must conclude from the Comments that, even if the principal drafters themselves gradually began to convey a different impression, comparative arguments played an important, often even decisive role in the drafting of the rules of Book VIII. If so, these rules are even more firmly rooted in current European property law than is often assumed.

This collection of essays reflects both the diversity of the group’s work and the common thread that runs through it. The core claim here is that the DCFR, despite the Commission’s characterization of its proposals as purely technical, cannot escape politics. The intent is to critically identify and evaluate the model of social justice underlying the DCFR.

The Draft Common Frame of Reference (DCFR) is the result of more than 25 years of academic research on European private law. The final academic version of the DCFR was published in October 2009, and currently the European Commission is undertaking a selection process in order to determine which parts of the DCFR will be included in a 'political' CFR. Against this background, this book presents and critically analyzes the DCFR and situates it in relation to current Belgian law. (Series: Ius Commune Europaeum - Vol. 99)

The Economic Impact Group (EIG) was created to support the work on the DCFR with insights from law and economics. It brings together a number of leading European law and economics scholars. The Group looked at the main elements of the DCFR with two questions in mind: from an economic perspective, is it sensible to harmonize private law across Europe for this specific element, and is the solution chosen in the DCFR optimal? This book presents the outcome of the work of the EIG. It deals with key issues such as the function of contract law, contract formation, good faith, non-discrimination, specific performance versus damages, standard contractual terms and consumer protection in contract law. The EIG complements the work of the drafters of the DCFR with insightful and critical assessments, based on the well-established law and economics literature.

The book is a must read for anybody interested in the future development of European private law. European Private Law News This volume contains a valuable collection of essays by a group of reputable academics, each dealing with a particular aspect of the development of a substantive law of contract at European level. The contributors have a variety of interests and perspectives. The topic is clearly of great current interest throughout the European Union and beyond. Peter Stone, University of Essex, UK European Private Law after the Common Frame of Reference brings together several interesting contributions from a distinguished group of scholars, and sheds light on the important issue of legal harmonization from an interdisciplinary and comparative perspective. Francesco Parisi, University of Minnesota, US and University of Bologna, Italy The Common Frame of Reference has several potential functions, some reconcilable, others mutually exclusive. Its size, its shape, its true legal nature and its content all remain contested. Modest or ambitious, toolbox or code-in-waiting? Its chameleon character is its strength and simultaneously its weakness, and equally the reason why it has attracted such attention. In this book the editors have assembled a veritable who s who in the field and it is a terrific read. Stephen Weatherill, University of Oxford, UK This book paves the way for, and initiates, the second-generation of research in European private law subsequent to the Draft Common Frame of Reference (DCFR) needed for the 21st century. The book gives a voice to the growing dissatisfaction in academic discourse that the DCFR, as it stands in 2009, does not actually represent the condensed available knowledge on the possible future of European private law. The contributions in this book focus on the legitimacy of law making through academics both now and in the future, and on the possible conceptual choices which will affect the future of European private law. Drawing on experience gained from the DCFR the authors advocate the competition of ideas and concepts. This fascinating book will be a must-read for European lawyers, private lawyers in the Member States and academics dealing with conceptual issues of the future of the national and the European private law. Advanced students in both law and international business will also find this book invaluable, as will US scholars interested in the US EU comparison of different legal orders.
