Relating to the provisions of the new Civil Code (Law no. 287/2009 republished in „The Official Gazette of Romania”, Part I, no. 505 of July 15, 2011, which was enforced on October 1st, 2011), the author examines in this paper the testament forms, in all respects on which they act. On this occasion, the author shows, on the one hand, that the regulation in question preserves many of the texts of the Civil Code of 1864, whose accuracy and actuality have been denied over time and, on the other hand, that it also establishes some new elements, required urgently by the new social realities. Doing so, Law no. 287/2009 becomes, regarding testament forms, a modern regulation, while the forms no longer used have been removed (such as mystic testament), and new short testament forms have been regulated, with a practical use that cannot be doubted (such as the testament made in case of epidemics, disasters, wars or other such exceptional circumstances, the testament made on board an aircraft, the testament made by the person admitted to a health institution) and expanding the scope of some forms (e.g. testament of amounts and values stored). -
The object of a contract enjoys a long tradition in civil law. However, a good part of the legal doctrine contests its identity, noting that, as regulated, it is mistaken for the object of the obligation. On the other hand, European contract law codification projects avoid nominating it, replacing it with the contract contents. The new Civil Code does not assume these normative orientations, assuming the regulation of the Civil Code in Québec. This study is designed to examine these orientations, to evaluate the solutions of the new Civil Code and to make proposals for the improvement of the new normative provisions.

Ce înseamnã pentru noi unificarea dreptului privat operatã de noul Cod civil? O simplã juxtapunere a normelor civile şi comerciale într-un singur instrument legislativ? O comasare mecanicã sub o etichetã unicã? Noi ne-am ferit sã procedãm astfel şi am încercat o fuziune a dreptului civil şi a celui comercial. În primul rând, am aşezat aceleaşi principii la baza tuturor materiilor. Libertatea de a dispune, buna-credinþã, sancţionarea abuzului de drept se regãsesc în materia familiei, bunurilor, obligaţiilor. Regulile generale de la obligaţii se dezvoltã şi la contractele speciale, ipoteci etc.
