The essential features of the preferential right are revealed and the main approaches to understanding its legal nature are considered. According to the first approach, preferential rights are defined as cases when, under all equal conditions, the advantage is granted by law to a specific group of persons with some special characteristics. The second approach does not have a single idea: the authors focus on a certain aspect of preferential rights and propose to understand other preferential rights in the same way. The place of “preferential rights” among other exceptions in the law is determined, the relationship and difference from related legal categories are shown. Based on the results of carried out research, the author's definition of a preferential right is developed as an additional possibility based on the property (corporate) interest of its owner, established by law or contract, to demand from the subject-accomplice in the right or the party in respect of proper behavior in the form of providing advantages over third parties. This right is proposed to be considered an independent subjective right due to the obvious independence of its existence in objective law as a measure of possible behavior defined by law (by contract, constituent document), the presence of a construction corresponding to it of a legal obligation, its own mechanism for the implementation of this right, and for a number of other reasons set out in the work.

AbstractThe article analyses the two main changes in direction in the regulation of subsoil use and management evident in Russia over the past twelve months. The first set of changes—effective as of 1 January 2005—significantly alter the relative authority of federal and regional executive bodies with regards to both the development of licensing programs and the procedures established for issuing the licenses themselves. The author asks whether the transfer of authority to federal executive bodies is realizable in practice, and whether or not the provisions of the Draft Law on subsoil—published by the government in March 2005—suggest that the federal authorities will establish a framework for licensing and the management of use that provides the predictability required by investors. This material was presented at a seminar "Law, Judicial Practice and the Russian Petroleum Sector" held at the Royal Institute of International Affairs in June 2005.The author then goes on to discuss the legal nature and potential effect of a subsoil use contract, the new instrument for regulating subsoil use relations as envisaged by the draft Law "On Subsoil" use, focusing on the security and transferability of the property right that is created. To illustrate what he perceives to be a general reluctance of the state to allow the transfer of forms of use right to be free from administrative control, comparisons are made with the uneasy balance of civil and administrative law regulations in product sharing agreements, and the problems in enacting the civil law transfer of other natural resources such as agricultural land.The article concludes by discussing the potential applicability of the provisions of the Draft Law on subsoil, the possible consequences of the failure of the Draft Law to define the grounds upon which executive bodies may develop criteria to restrict or terminate the rights of the user, and the general absence of a clear definition of the function and competence of different state bodies.

Nowadays the processes of democratization, liberalization, integration of Ukraine into European and world space take place. Theundisputed significance for these processes is the signing of the Association Agreement between Ukraine and the European Union.Thus, the rapprochement of Ukraine with the European community, which has taken place in recent years, affects the sphere of privatelaw relations, which make up the subject matter of civil law. Taking all mentioned above into account corporate relations and its nationalregulation is critical issue for analysis.The provisions of national legislation regarding the definition of corporate rights and respective legal relations are analyzed. Specialattention is paid to the position of the civil law doctrine representatives in terms of legal nature and features of corporate legal relations.Analysis of current doctrine gives ground to state that corporate relations are considered to be a special type of civil legal relationsthat make up the subject of civil law. At the same time recognition of corporate relations as a type of civil ones makes it possible to useall the civil law tools and mechanism of legal protection and enforcement for corporate relations regulation.The relevant practice of the highest judicial bodies of Ukraine is analyzed. The analysis of the legislation and judicial practicehas given an opportunity to stress some problems that need to be eliminated. To our mind, one of the main problems is “fragmentation”of the legislator’s attention to the definition of corporate legal relations, which creates the ground for numerous discussions. At the sametime there are critical problems in judicial practice. For instance, we cannot agree with the Supreme Court’s attempts to find corporatelegal relations in those types of legal entities in which such legal relations do not take place at all.It is crucial to stress that recodification of civil legislation in Ukraine has its direct impact on private legal relations system andits mechanism of legal regulations.

The relevance of this study is due to the necessity to ensure the proper exercise of subjective civil rights in the field of inheritance law. Protection in inheritance is related to the general right to protection. Due to the peculiarities of inheritance law as a sub-branch of civil law, it has its own specifics, which is manifested primarily in the definition of special ways to protect violated unrecognized or challenged rights. In addition, the protection of the rights of heirs takes place only within the inheritance relationship, which is characterized by a long nature. The purpose of the article is to identify the features of protection of subjective civil rights of heirs in the field of inheritance. This necessitates the use of special methodological approaches that will identify the characteristics of protection of the rights of heirs, as well as research methods such as dogmatic, formal-logical, systematic, comparative law. The article analyses the recognition of the right of ownership of inherited property in court and proves that this exceptional method of protection is used if there are obstacles to the notarization of inheritance rights. The most typical and widespread special ways to protect the rights of heirs are considered: removal from the right to inherit, invalidation of the will, change of the order of obtaining the right to inherit, reduction of the size of the obligatory share in the inheritance. The outlined issues were not widely covered in the legal literature, as the attention of scholars was mainly in the perspective of clarifying the legal nature of protection and defence, the ratio of forms and methods of protection of subjective civil rights, analysis of general methods of protection of subjective civil rights. That is why this work is an important contribution to outlining the issue of inheritance law and attracting due attention of the scientific community.

The article analyzes the legal nature of contractual relations arising from the implementation of entrepreneurial fishing (industrial and coastal). The question under examination is to which type of contracts we can attribute obligations in the field of fisheries: civil law, business or natural resources. Norms of which branch of legislation should govern contractual relations in the field of fisheries? Contracts that generate entrepreneurial obligations in the field of fisheries, as well as provide the right to harvest (catch) aquatic biological resources, are at the same time the basis for the emergence of the right to conduct entrepreneurial activity and the basis for the transfer of a property right to natural resource. The article substantiates the conclusion that these contractual relations are entrepreneurial in the field of environmental management, have a public-law nature and are subject to complex regulation not only by the norms of natural resources law, but also entrepreneurial legislation, but not civil law. To this end, it is proposed to develop a new legal mechanism for regulating entrepreneurial obligations in the field of fisheries.

Reclaimed and improved lands hold a special place in the land system of the Russian Federation, which determines the specifics of their legal regime.The article explores the legal nature and content of the legal regime for such lands, identifies their differences. The author gives her own definition of the legal regime of lands. The author notes that the legal regime of the reclaimed land and land plots that form part of those lands is highly differentiated. Therefore the author indicates factors that influence this regime. And it is hydro-technical and agroforestry activities performed on those lands that produce the greatest changes in their legal regime. If lands plots that form part of any land category, are recognized as reclaimed lands, it leads to tightening of the legal regime, because these lands need to comply with strict environmental requirements. Reclaimed lands are particularly vulnerable, especially those that form part of the agricultural zones of settlement lands; that is why the legal mechanism for their protection and conservation was established. The author points out to general deterioration of their ecological state, reduction of land and proposes solutions to these problems through legal means.

During the years of independence, entrepreneurship in Ukraine has undergone a significant evolution. The opening of domestic markets and stable economic growth contributed to the emergence of a significant number of foreign investors who became participants (shareholders) of domestic companies. Along with foreign investors in Ukraine, European approaches to business structuring, building a model of relations between partners, standards of corporate governance, ethics, etc. began to be applied. The development of corporate law was significantly influenced by Ukraine's recognition of private property and guaranteeing equality of all forms of ownership. In view of the above, the issue of essential content of corporate rights, in particular their role in civil law relations, becomes especially important. Assigning corporate rights to a certain type of objects of civil law and distinguishing the features of their turnover requires, first of all, determining the legal nature of corporate rights, identifying the characteristics and formulating their definition. The most common views on the legal nature of corporate relations are the approaches of civil doctrine, business law, as well as the so-called integrated approach. Thus, the definition of corporate relations is inextricably linked with the definition of the range of legal entities for which we can generally speak of the existence of corporate rights. In legal science, different views are expressed on this issue. Some scholars note that corporate rights can have only members of corporations, and the corporations, in turn, it should be considered only those companies in which the share capital is divided into shares, participants are entitled to part of the company's profits and to participate in its management. Taking into account the specific legal nature of corporate rights, the latter should be considered a special and independent object of civil law, characterized by its own, not inherent in any other object features. Ensuring proper civil circulation of such objects requires amendments to the current legislation, first of all, the recognition of them as the objects of civil rights. Undoubtedly, such changes should be comprehensive and aimed at improving the civil circulation of corporate rights between the parties to civil relations. Based on the above, it is proposed to introduce a legal definition of corporate rights, setting it out as follows: corporate rights are the object of civil law, which is a set of rights of a person whose share is determined in the authorized capital (property) of a business organization, a person in the management of a business organization, receiving a certain share of profits (dividends) of the organization and assets in the event of liquidation of the latter in accordance with the law, as well as other powers provided by law and statutory documents.
