Abstract: At the level of national legal systems, we can notice, lately, the existence of a phenomenon of contractualization of family law institutions. Practically new concepts are emerging, which are moving further and further away from the traditional ones and which are focused on the protection of individual rights. In this context, inevitably looking at our legal system, we naturally wonder how long we will withstand the wave of changes in family matters. In the present study we aim to analyze some of the shortcomings of the legislation in terms of forms of social coexistence, medically assisted human reproduction, non-unitary jurisprudential solutions and implications in social reality.
Keywords: marriage; spouses; civil partnership; filiation; medically assisted human reproduction
