The present article is devoted to the subject of works on the codification and unifica- tion of law in Poland during World War II. It discusses the situation of Roman law as a scientific discipline and an academic subject in Poland after the end of World War II, which was largely due to the social and political changes that took place in our country at that time. Soviet law, which was a model for socialist civil law, negated the distinction between what was public and what was private, which was characteristic of Roman law. Negating the fundamental principles of the former private law was something unprecedented in the entire history of law. In fact, from mid-1918 Soviet civil law became public law. The process of unification, although complex and requiring the involvement of state authorities and the intellectual effort of lawyers, was a neces- sity. The process of unification of civil law resulted in the invalidation of almost all district civil law provisions.
