Summary/Abstract: Modern Russian civil law is being influenced by the foreign legal experience. This is because of the relative youth of modern Russian law, which has its roots in the early 1990s. Numerous foreign legal constructions were fixed in Russian legislation without due adaptation to the legal traditions of Russia. The paper considers criteria for the appropriateness of borrowings from the foreign legal experience. The conclusion is made about the necessity to use the foreign legal experience in accordance with the Russian legal traditions established in the 19th–20th centuries in order to preserve the originality of national law.
