Annotation This article is an attempt to trace the history of the science of private international law (PIL) in Ukraine from the beginning of 1991 and up to 2012. The article shows the results and specific features of current period of scientific research in the sphere of PIL. Namely, during such period the thematic and quantitative rates in scientific research were substantially increased. The PIL's doctrine in Ukraine still has extraneous features of soviet period. But, one can see gradual changes in PIL's paradigm. In scientific works, which were published in 1991-2012 years, it's marked the evolution of ideas as to the legal nature of PIL, its branch character, subject, methods and sources as well as to other basic notions. Thus, the idea that PIL is exclusively national branch of law loses its dominant position in scientific circles.
Keywords private international law (PIL), history of private international law, Ukrainian scientific research centers in the sphere of PIL.
