§15§In einer Phase, in der sich die wissenschaftliche und politische Aufmerksamkeit auf einen Wettbewerb der verschiedenen Privatrechtskodifikationen der Mitgliedstaaten richten und darüber hinaus ein vertikaler Wettbewerb nationaler Kodizes im Verhältnis zu europäischen und supranationalen Regelwerken anklingt, erscheinen vollharmonisierende Richtlinien eher als Rückschritt für die Fortentwicklung des Europäischen Privatrechts.Die vorliegende Arbeit will versuchen, auszuloten, was das Konzept der Vollharmonisierung im Privatrecht tatsächlich zu leisten im Stande ist. Trotz des aktuellen Eindrucks schwer lastender Kritikverdient die Voll-harmonisierung als durchaus traditionsreiche Methode der Rechtsangleichung eine unvoreingenommene Untersuchung ihrer Wirkweise, ihrer Implikationen und ihrer Praxistauglichkeit. §16§[Writings pertaining to European and international private, banking and commercial law]Europeanization and internationalization challenge the realm of jurisprudence to an extraordinary degree. The division in special fields and the relationship with other social sciences necessitate critical reevaluation in view of many interactions. Cross-references between commercial law regulation and private, autonomous arrangement distinctly show this development. Jurisprudence emerging beyond Germany has to deal with such challenges. The law of financial services serves as an example of the cross-section material from private law and (public) commercial law. This takes into account the series at hand in terms of content and method. In addition to banking, capital market and financial law as the main emphasis, corporate law, competition 〓16§rlaps of classical private law - in particular contractual law - and commercial law promise a bountiful yield, especially on the European level under the summarizing aspect of corporate law. The outstanding monography also finds its place in the series, as well as the conference volume, works in German and also occasional works in English. There are economically-aligned works in addition to juridical works constituting the main emphasis. Works pertaining to Europeanization and internationalization are compiled in the series, which convey commercial law and commercially-conceived private law in an outstanding manner. §01§Anne-Christin Mittwoch, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin.
