- Abstract
In the course of recent legal history, one of the most important achievements of jurisprudence in individual rights is considered to be the development of the legal person and the attendant regulatory amendments. In this paper the author will attempt to discuss the functional mechanism of territorial communities and the institution of the legal person. According to the author, a legal person is an organization created/formed by people that is recognized by the legal order, which, in order to fulfill its goals, participates in legal utilization as a subject possessing total passive legal capacity. The author maintains that in established law, the legal regulation of the institution of the legal person does not correspond to the needs of legal utilization in the context of territorial communities and generally recognized principles of law. The general principles of this article were presented by the author at the 10th annual EURAM conference held in Rome, Italy, in 2010.
