Abstract

The main aim of the article is to confirm or disprove the hypothesis about the applicability of the methodology of analysis, which is used in the evaluation of EU projects, for economic analysis of law.
According to the hypothesis, it is possible to use a methodology that considers a wide range of data. In addition to financial values, it considers human and social values. The methodology used in this way could help in assessing the impact of the regulations introduced. It’s would be an important tip for the legislator. The method of comparative law was used in the research.
