Abstract
The legal relationships governed by the rules of
Private Law entail the most intimate ones in which people involve themselves. While the rules of Private Law aim at harmonising these
relationships on the one hand it also has to establish the boundaries of these legal relationships by carefully balancing
conflicting rights or interests in countless situations.
