This study is based on original Russian sources, due atten tion being paid to some authoritative views advanced by foreign lawyers. Leaving aside the essentials of the work in the hope that they will speak for themselves; I should like to make some prelim inary remarks regarding the linguistic and other formal aspects. First of all it should be noted that many of the Soviet laws have already been translated into English either in the USSR itself or in Western countries. This fact is fully reflected in the bibliographical survey at the end of this study. Some laws have been translated both in the Soviet Union and abroad, as for instance the Fundamentals of Soviet Civil Legislation. In such a case I have used the translation made in the USSR even though linguistically it may be inferior to the translation made in the West. The author has translated only those legal provi sions of which no English translation was available.

This is the definitive English translation of the new Russian Civil Code (Parts 1 and 2), often referred to as "the second Russian Constitution". The Civil Code of the Russian Federation is the result of a collaborative effort of a leading United States expert on Russian law and of the staff of the Private Law Research Center attached to the Office of the President of the Russian Federation -- the Center that had primary responsibility for drafting the new Civil Code. The authoritative introduction, complete table of contents. and comprehensive index combine to set this work far beyond the utility of any existing translations of the Civil Code. It will be a must-have resource for government, law and international business collections.
