Protection of subjective civil rights has been in the focus of close attention of civilists for several decades. At the same time, the emphasis of the doctrinal justification gets a unique expression in view of the nature of private law policy, which is manifested in the fundamental act of civil law. The adoption of the Civil Code of Ukraine (Ukraine’s CC) in 2003 as the constitution of private law for a future civil society with an advanced market economy entailed a significant intensification of scientific research in the relevant domain. The provisions of current Ukraine’s CC, which largely formed the modern institute of subjective civil rights protection, have become a key factor in the development of the national civil doctrine in the post-Soviet period. The purpose of the article is to analyze and identify the general vector of development of the private law doctrine in the domain of protection of subjective civil rights, with due regard for the changes which occurred in the legal regulation of the institute of subjective civil rights protection upon adoption of the current Ukraine’s CC and the reform of the Ukrainian procedural legislation within the framework of the judicial reform. The article highlights the need to distinguish between the right to protection and the protection of rights as real actions directly aimed at protecting an infringed right. The author comes to the conclusion that the category of protection of rights should be reviewed, especially in the system of the mechanism of civil rights implementation. In this connection, the stage at which a right is protected is recognized as an optional stage of the mechanism of subjective civil right implementation, and it is split off from other stages, since it has the characteristic features which exclude its integration with the stage at which the subjective right is formed, as well as implemented. The author demonstrates the correlation between protection of rights and other civilistic categories, such as safeguarding of rights, interest protected by law and liability under civil law. Within the framework of studying the institute of protection of rights, the legal phenomenon of abuse of rights is analyzed. The author suggests an approach to legal consequences of qualification of the protection remedy as a general or special one in the context of law application practice. Efficient protection of subjective civil rights is recognized as the general vector of development of the private law doctrine in the domain of subjective civil rights protection at the current stage. It is established that relevant changes pierce through the entire institution of protection of rights, from its doctrinal interpretation and interaction with other related institutions, to the implications of the doctrine for the generation of new legislative approaches and the relevant judicial practice, since the prevailing task of the court procedure under the new procedural legislation is to assure efficient protection of rights of a person who seeks legal redress. |
