Administrative procedures, as well as public bodies that carry out these procedures, ought to perform functions related to the application of administrative law in a constantly changing social, economic, and political environment. This presents them with new challenges and expectations time and time again. According to the findings of the this study, the relation of transparency and administrative procedures – which could be described as a type of historically rooted but, at the same time, contemporary expectation towards public administration – fits in the above concept. The study attempts to interpret and define the concept of transparency on the basis of the terminology used by international organisations in the field of the examination of administrative procedures, and thus to highlight the issues, divergences and their causes.

In this paper, we wish to make a few comments on the third edition of the hungarian translation of the Romanian Civil Code, without claiming to be exhaustive. Our translation suggestions concern certain provisions of personal (and family) law, law of property and law of obligations. We will expand on the concepts of legal personality, legal capacity and capacity to act in the personal law section, the concepts of property and assets in the law of property section, and the relationship between the concepts of legal fact and deed in the law of obligations section, and then make translation and correction suggestions for all the other articles in the books mentioned.

In dem ersten Teil wird die Entstehung des Begriffs von materielle Rechtswidrigkeit als Gegenbegriff von formaler Rechtswidrigkeit dargestellt und der Eifluss des Buches "Der Zweck im Recht" von Rudolf von Jhering wird darin aufgehoben. Im zweiten Teil wird die Veränderung des Begriffs "Rechtsgut" in den letzten Jahrzehnten in der deutschen strafrechtlichen Literatur analysiert, durch welche Veränderung wird der Rechtsgut als verfassungsrechtliche Schranke vor der Gesetzgebung wiedergeboren. Die Studie kritisiert diese Veränderung als Gefahr für die demokratische politische Willensbildung.

Die geschichtliche Formierung der Kategorien der Privatrechtsdogmatik wird dargestellt (in erster Linie im deutschen Rechtskreis).

The paper summarises the sources, functions and species (types) of Hungarian private law's general principles. It emphasises that the non-legal basis thereof consists in the Common European Cultural Heritage (as Greek philosophy, Roman law, Judeo-Christian religious tradition, Humanism, Enlightenment). Thereafter, the contribution analyses the interdependence and mechanisms of action of the governing principles of Rule of Law and Justice. The study shows that, on the one hand, among homogeneous relationships and circumstances, Justice operates as the Rule of Law, while, in heterogeneity, it is the Equity, which performs the Rule of Law by means of correction of Justice: Both Justice and Equity guarantee the perpetuance of Rule of Law, which has a certain predominance according to the previous two principles. The article presents how these governing principles bind and oblige legislation, application of law and subjects of law (persons) as well. In a critical approach, the paper defines Equity as it is a governing principle of Hungarian private law obliging legislation and jurisdiction in different manners for guaranteeing Rule of Law by a correction of Justice through a one-sided preference resulting from judicial discretion based on statutory mandate for the purpose, on the one hand, of the shield those worthy of protection, and, on the other hand, in special and extraordinary cases, in order to grant derogations from the general norm within the very provisions of certain regulations.

The constantly changing economic and social environment is of paramount importance to the environment of labour law regulation today given that the socio-economic definition of labour law can be considered on the basis of the current idea thereof. Adaptation to the changing environment requires that labour law regulations also adapt properly to the changes. As a result, we may encounter a number of new employment relationships today, which will generate additional problems to be resolved with regard to labour law.
