- Title
Ancient Russian Towns as a Social Framework for the Development of Private Law.
- Authors
Đorđević, Aleksandar
- Abstract
In this paper, the author points out to the importance of the gradual establishment and evolution of the ancient Russian medieval towns as an important precondition for the development of private law. In the medieval European societies, that was not a common phenomenon. The Russian feudalism was specific as the exchange of goods for money existed in many towns. The craftsmanship and trade were highly developed as early as the 9thand 10th century. All major ancient Russian towns were linked by the important trade route leading from the Northern Sea to Constantinople. The internal development of these towns also contributed to the gradual establishment of economic grounds that preconditioned the development of Property Law and Law of Obligations in medieval Russia. Apart from the capital cities of Kiev and Moscow, the most important ancient Russian towns were Novgorod and Pskov.
