Die Übertragung von Vermögen anlässlich des Todes außerhalb des Erbrechts durch Schenkung

Gifts can be postponed until the death of the donor. When such a gift remains subject to gift law and when it is subject to inheritance law is answered differently, depending on the legal structure of the gift. The work first deals with § 2301 BGB and then comprehensively shows that gifts postponed to the death of the donor are treated inconsistently under the application of § 2301 BGB. Following the clarification of the fundamental question of the relationship between gifts and dispositions upon death, a solution is proposed which is intended to enable the demarcation of gifts and dispositions under inheritance law in the future.
