總有에 관한 民法規定의 改正方案

This paper has focused on my personal opinion that aims to investigate problems in the provisions of the “Gesamteigentum(a collective ownership of a corporate non-juridical person)” in the current Korean Civil Code, and to present a proposal on the new provisions of the ownership of a corporate non-juridical person on the basis of this investigation. To achieve the aim of this paper, I have investigated variety of legislations about the provisions of forms of ownership of a corporate non-juridical person and I have analyzed the background and the process of a unique legislation of the current Korean Civil Code about the “Gesamteigentum” that was a form of land-ownership of the Middle Ages German “Genossenschaft(a village association).”In this paper on the basis of this comparative and historical investigation about the “Gesamteigentum” I have examined whether the provisions of the current Korean Civil Code about the “Gesamteigentum” has appropriateness or not. The conclusion of this paper is as follows. (1) It was so careless or unreasonable legislative measures that the Korean Civil Code has codified the “Gesamteigentum” as a general type of joint ownerships that was only a lecturing concept for a form of land-ownership of the Middle Ages German “Genossenschaft(a village association).”(2) The Korean Civil Code provide the legal relations of “Gesamteigentum” as a type of the modern joint ownership but I think It was a serious legislative mistake, because “Gesamteigentum” is not personal ownership but is only the power of use the property of the a village association. (3) The provisions of the “Gesamteigentum” in current Korean Civil Code must be revised, because it is not desirable in a viewpoint of legislative policy. On the basis of this investigation I propose a way of revising plan for amendment of the current Korean Civil Code about the “Gesamteigentum”.
