The article is devoted to the land and legal creativity of a member of the Commission for the Study of Customary Law of Ukraine, established in 1921 at the All-Ukrainian Academy of Sciences, O.S. Dobrov, in particular the peculiarities of the introduction into the mechanism of legal regulation of the then land relations of local customs. As a positive point, the proposed expansion of the historical period of existence of domestic land law, starting from the XVI century. It is stated that modern Ukrainian representatives of legal science have overlooked this fact. A debatable point in the work of O.S. Dobrov is an insufficiently substantiated proposal to apply local customs in land law through the prism of their compliance with the principle of compliance with the Civil Code of compliance with the socio-economic purpose of any civil rights of citizens called to implement solely to develop productive forces. Attention is drawn to the insufficient elaboration of empirical material by the scientist, because the illogical substitution of the basic private law principle of formation of civil rights in order to satisfy private interests on the purely public law principle of achieving state interests ultimately leads to complete leveling of customary land law.
Keywords: land law, local customs, customary land law norms, public interests, private interests
