Historical and Comparative Law Analysis Szerző: Sándor István HVG-ORAC Kiadó,
2015 In the history of law, the English institution of the trust is one of the
most original and least straightforward institutions in the theory of private
law,which rests on the foundations of Roman law. On the other hand the legal
institution of the trust and similar legal arrangements were introduced in
several countries with civil law and mixed jurisdiction. The book discusses the
development of use and the trust and also examines other contemporary legal
institutions that may have played a role in the development of the trust. It
deals with the description of the rules of the trust, including variations in
the definition of the trust, and its common classifications in literature and
also works up questions concerning the adoption of the trust in civil law
systems. It also raises issues that continue to particularly impede and prevent
the full application of the rules of the trust in the legal systems of civil law
to this day. The book provides an overview of legislative methods and legal
practices in different countries with a potential to implement the trust or
trust-like legal devices and discusses the main international efforts aimed at
the unification of law too. The author also describes the background and main
rules of the fiduciary property management contract in Hungary. The work is
perhaps unique in its choice of providing a detailed analysis of Hungarian
regulation. István Sándor is associate professor of law at Eötvös Loránd
