The Institute of Partnership in Roman Private Law

Provisions on obligations and contracts are such institutions of Roman private law that have particularly strongly influenced modern civil law. In this article examine in detail the origin and development of the institution of contractus societas, i.e. a partnership agreement. This agreement is also present in modern Russian civil legislation. In this regard, the study of the institution of a partnership agreement in Roman private law seems relevant.
The purpose of this study is to form a comprehensive scientific understanding of the origin and development of the institution of contractus societas, i.e. a partnership agreement, in Roman private law. The objective of the study is to consider various varieties of the institution of contractus societas, such as societas unius rei, in which the property of the participants was strictly separate and common ownership did not arise, as well as contractus societas negotiationis, in which the property became the common property of the partners from the moment of its acquisition. The scientific significance of the study lies in identifying the main characteristics of the institution of the partnership agreement, which was regulated in detail in a variety of aspects by the time of Justinian's codification.
The practical significance of the study lies in the possibility of using its results in studying Roman private law. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the comprehensive scientific understanding of the origin and development of the institution of the partnership agreement formed by the authors.
