Topic | ENTREPRENEURSHIP IN THE HISTORY OF RUSSIA: THE PROBLEM OF CONTINUITY |
| Summary | The article deals with some issues of elaboration of the most important part of civil laws connected with property relations in the field of entrepreneurship. In the early 19th century, Russia was in the process of forming corporate legislation, which put the empire on a par with the advanced Western European countries from this point of view. That fact contributed to the broader development of entrepreneurship, which could legally be carried out in various forms. At the same time, work was carried out on the improvement of such a legal category as the institution of property, on rethinking and generalization of the previous national experience. The legislative activity of the government in the second half of the 19th century focused on the problems of adapting the current norms of law to the peculiarities of the socio-economic development of the country, as well as filling the gaps caused by the abolition of serfdom. The article shows the implementation of legal norms in everyday commercial life using the typical examples of some Russian and foreign joint-stock companies. Ultimately, Russia’s legislation was brought in line with the norms in force in this area in Western European countries. Based on the factual material, contained in various published sources and archival documents, the author concludes that Russian laws created favorable conditions for entrepreneurial activity and ensured the protection of the property rights of merchants and manufacturers, allowing them to maintain succession in business legal relationship. | ||
