The right to parental custody

More about the research objective

In European legal culture, the concepts of family, parenthood, motherhood, and fatherhood are fundamental values. However, the traditional meaning of these concepts has been questioned in recent decades. Consequently, it has become necessary to conduct a scientific analysis of parental responsibility, one of the key issues in this area, based on the legal systems of Central and Eastern European countries, which belong to the same legal culture and are built on many similar historical, cultural, legal, and social experiences.
The research group examined parental responsibility from the perspective of the national law of the countries concerned and the case law of the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg. The analysis focused on the following issues: the axiological and constitutional foundations of the protection of parental responsibility, the private law framework of parental responsibility, the concept of parent and child, the principles of parental responsibility, the rights and obligations of parents and children resulting from parental responsibility, the sexual education of children and parental responsibility, detailed issues related to the regulation of parental responsibility in cases of cohabitation and separation of parents, the legal status of children not subject to parental responsibility, and de lege ferenda proposals.
