Krupchan O. D., Gaydulin O. O. Europeanization of private law as a hermeneutic and civilistics problem: an approach to the interpretation law institutionalization.

The article deals with the problems of the civilistic institutionalization of the interpretation law in the context of the Europeanization of private law. The basis of this study is the application of civilistic methods to investigate this problem.

This article deals with the comprehensive study of the legal integration of the private law systems of the EU Member States and other European countries. In Comparative Law, this process is called Europeanization of private law. This is a broad topic that raises many questions. The issue of Europeazation of private law is an extremely multi-faceted problem. The current economic crisis is a challenge for the Europeanization of private law.

There is a need to exchange experience in interpreting the concept of European Private Law after the 2016 Brexit referendumand to propose a common way of a coherent Europeanization policy strategy on this basis. In this context, Europeanization can be defined equally simply and broadly as a type regional international integration.

However, this meaning is not so simple. Suddenly, after the 2016 Brexit, EU self-identification with all Europe is destroyed by one act. All this happened because level of European Union identification was very excessive. European academic lawyers spoke about it previously. In particular, it was stressed that they do not subscribe to the overly

European Union-centric notion «Europe» that the term «Europeanization» implies. However, they went along with the widely used term «Europeanization», while noting its obvious inaccuracy. The «extremist wing of the Europeanization brigade» have tended to view the European states as little more than passive recipients duly implementing dictate of Brussels.

Now Europeanization of private law for all EU member states should be understood as the «EU-ization», but it should take the form of a legal harmonization too. Europeanization of private law for all States, including Ukraine, should be interpreted as the legal cultural process or the common base of the harmonization of laws.

And for this purpose academic lawyers should use this term as referring to the cross-culture comparing of legal paradigms at the domestic level. These paradigms could be the keys for understanding the legal convergence problem. They go to the very heart of the national (domestic) legal systems in Europe.

Under these conditions, the concept of codification of private law in the form of a European civil code is hopelessly outdated. More promising is the way to approximate the mechanisms of legal interpretation. Indeed, there are all indications of the formation of a new civilistic institute, called the right of interpretation. This institute comes from ancient Roman ius interpretatio. That is why this modern institutionalization is a reception of Roman law interpretation.

The article concludes that a coherent methodology is needed to clarify the process of institutionalizing the law interpretation. Therefore, there is a need to develop a new type of doctrine – the civilistic theory of law of interpretation.

Key words: European private law, Europeazation of private law, law of interpretation, doctrine, civilistic methodology.
