Samuelsson JoelDCFR som svensk rättskälla?2016De lege. Juridiska Fakulteten i Uppsala. Årsbok 2015. Europarätten – 20 År i Sverige iUSTUS Förlag Red.Mattias Dahlberg & Karin Åhman SwedishSummary provided by Egil Nordqvist: Joel Samuelsson in the article treats the issue of the use of DCFR as legal source in the Swedish Supreme Court (HD). He raises the general problems of introduction of European civil law materia - the formal lack of authority of the source in national legislation, differences in organisation and materiality of legal content, the difficulty of verification of the content in a non-closed legal system; and the general advantages - development of reasonable common solutions, or at least a parallel voice: the possibility for the national courts to introduce a comparative angle, provided by the DCFR.
