SCIENTIFIC AND METHODOLOGICAL ANALYSIS OF RESEARCH IN THE FIELD OF PRIVATE LAW: PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS

Abstract

The article analyzes the methodological problems and directions for improving the
conduct of scientific research in private law in the context of digital transformation. Despite the
existing requirements for the subject, content, and methodological approaches of civil law research
in the digital reality era, the insufficient formation of the theoretical and practical foundations of
dissertation research determines the relevance of the topic. According to the author, the theoretical
epistemological definition of new concepts and categories entering scientific circulation does not
have a complete civilizational content within the framework of the research. The article highlights
existing shortcomings in the expression of scientific innovations, conclusions, and recommendations,
provides a scientific and methodological analysis of research in the field of private law, and reflects on
its evolutionary development. The research used the scientific and theoretical views of legal scholars,
as well as the comparative legal method, methods of analysis, synthesis, observation, generalization,
induction, and deduction. Based on the historical and evolutionary laws of the development of private
law, it is substantiated that there is a need to form new knowledge about the application of previously
unknown developments or hypotheses (theories) in civil transactions. The conclusion puts forward such
author’s proposals as the formation of scientific communication platforms using modern technologies, the
introduction of new mechanisms for the methodological training of researchers.
