Abstract
The paper analyses processes which preceded the adoption of civil legal acts by applying both a historical and comparative method. Attempt is made to corroborate the thesis about the continuity of legal development based on the common core of Roman law as the precursor of national civil law codifications. Indeed, an examination of individual development phases of the legal systems of socialist countries points to a tacit continuity of the idea of civil law codifications. However, while post-socialist countries are reinstating the tradition of civil legal acts, the Republic of Croatia does not seem to follow that trend.
