Abstract. Comparative
law approaches operated and even now are operating through the concept of group,
as well as for instance by terminologies of legal family, (great) legal system,
legal culture and context. This text is focused on part of Eastern European
space from the point of view of part of Western comparative law studies. In the
second half of the 20th century one has to deal here with a zone which was for
several decades understood by them as a component of the socialist group. Later
Western comparative law reflected big change which marked relevant area and
turned to references to transition and transformation. Posttransformative
references to legal situation in Eastern Europe of early years of the second
decade of the 21st century show that all states of this zone had not passed the
period of transformation in same manner. Recent regroupings of states of the
relevant space are based on evaluations of their adaptation to Western and
Europeanization standards with special respect to public law part of evaluated
reforms. One has to take into account that evaluations of transformation process
are concerned in reached measures of rule of law, approach to human rights,
quality of relations to European Union. Many states of Eastern Europe became
member states of the European Union on the one hand and part of Eastern Europe
is considered even neither constituent part of continental legal group on the
other. Last but not least one has to remark that majority of states of relevant
zone originated in the early 90´s of the 20th century within spaces of dissolved
federations and thus (in addition) solved problems connected with constitution
of nation statehood. New, as well as other states were especially within the
European context confronted with recent legal pluralism and with its adequate
reflection.
