This volume is a novel study of the development of civil procedural law in Poland. It examines this evolution through a historical and contemporary perspective and contextualizes it within the last 500 years of European civil procedure development trends.

The first codification of Polish court proceedings was made in 1523. Half a millennium later, the jurists in this volume have carefully analyzed the transformation of Polish civil procedure from then to the present day against the historical background of the development of modern European legal orders and institutions. This study is the result of the work of a research group established at the Jagiellonian University in Kraków, consisting of historical and modern jurists and scholars of civil procedure and private law.

Contributors are: Grzegorz J. Blicharz, Andrzej Dziadzio, Radosław Flejszar, Krzysztof Fokt, Kacper Górski, Jan Halberda, Vincent R. Johnson, Izabela Lewandowska-Malec, Martin Löhing, Franciszek Longchamps de Bérier, Dorota Malec, Maciej Mikuła, Andrzej Olaś, Grzegorz Smyk, Kamila Staudigl-Ciechowicz, and Abdoul Yatera.

Andrzej Dziadzio, Ph.D. (1994), is Professor of Law and Head of the Department of Common History of the State and the Law at the Jagiellonian University in Kraków.
