Human – Child – Natural Person. Concepts Established in Civil Law or Needing Redefinition?

Abstract

At what point can we speak of the origins of a natural person – is this really the moment of birth and what does the end of the person’s existence mean – or should it be justified that this is the moment of death? Authors try to answer for two questions, which will require focusing attention on the definition of a human, child and finally also a natural person defined in Polish civil law. On the other hand, due to the fact that the concept of a natural person does not function only in the area of private law, the authors will also refer to the necessary extent to, inter alia, criminal and constitutional law, which is the intended action of the authors. It should be noted, however, that the basic scope analyzed is, however, private law.
