La 4e de couv. indique : "Professeur émérite de l'Université de Nantes et membre honoraire de l'Institut Universitaire de France, François Dutilleul a conduit ces dernières années d'ambitieuses recherches dans le cadre du programme Lascaux qui s'appuie sur un réseau de plus de 200 chercheurs dans le monde et travaille en lien avec la société civile. Portant à la fois sur la sécurité alimentaire et sur la gestion des ressources naturelles, ces travaux illustrent son intérêt pour le droit de l'alimentation et cohabitent avec les nombreux ouvrages et articles consacrés au droit des contrats, au droit de l'immobilier ou au droit rural, parmi lesquels on peut citer l'incontournable Précis Dalloz "Contrats civils et commerciaux", coécrit avec le professeur Philippe Delebecque [...]"
This volume contains the major result of the work undertaken by the international research group "Transfer of Movables" which belonged to the Study Group on a European Civil Code. It covers the most important aspects of the law of property in movables, such as the transfer of ownership based on the transferor's right and the good faith acquisition of ownership. The suggested black letter provisions are accompanied by extensive explanatory comments and comparative notes providing information on the existing rules of the EU Member States. As compared to Book VIII of the DCFR, this volume contains additional and partly revised national notes, extended comments, translations of the black letter rules and adapted registers. The "Principles of European Law" are published in co-operation with Oxford University Press and Staempfli (Switzerland).
Foundations of Property Law: Things as Objects of Property Rights is an abridged translation of the first volume of Christian von Bar's Gemeineuropäisches Sachenrecht -a milestone in European private law theory, and in comparative property law more broadly. Radical in content and scope, the English version examines the dynamics of interaction between the objects, contents, and holders of property. The conceptual framework of 'property law' is presented as a domain of erga omnes monopoly rights that govern the relationship between persons and objects of value. Within that framework, a reciprocal relationship is illustrated between "property rights" and their objects; property rights play a r...
The arbitral tribunal's responsibilities and tasks often do not end when it has rendered it's award. Tribunals may be called to interpret their awards or correct clerical errors, the award may be sent back to them for amendments; arbitrators may have to comment on their awards or may be called as witnesses; they may be invited to continue even though all pending disputes have been decided; their fees may be challenged or they may have to claim tax reimbursements. These and other issues that arbitrators, parties and institutions have to face once the award has been rendered are examined by leading authorities.
The contract for lease of goods is well known in practical life. Short-time leases of cars, to both businesses and consumers, are perhaps the most striking example, but contracts for temporary use of another person’s goods in exchange for rent are common for a wide range of products, like industrial equipment, office machines, leisure boats, sports gear, etc. Long-term leases are often chosen as an alternative to other forms of acquisition of goods ("financial leases"). This book presents a set of Principles of European law on lease contracts within the framework of the Study Group on a European Civil Code. The Principles are closely co-ordinated with other parts of what will become the Dr...
The rules presented in this volume of "Principles of European Law" deal with commercial agency, franchise and distribution contracts, and with other contracts where one party uses the other party's skill and efforts to bring its products to the market. Although these Principles are not directly applicable to other long-term (commercial) contracts, some of the Articles may be applied to such contracts by way of analogy where appropriate. The economic function of all three contracts is that they are instrumental in bringing products to the market. They are so-called vertical agreements, as they are agreements between economic actors on different levels in the production and distribution chain....
European Consumer Law has adapted and evolved in response to the rapid growth of e-commerce in the last two decades. Compliance with European Consumer Law: The Case of E-Commerce examines the evolving legal framework at the EU and national levels - from mandatory disclosures to unfair contract terms - and analyses the extent to which scientifically grounded evidence or theories underpin these legislative choices. At the heart of the book lies an original, data-driven inquiry assessing compliance among e-commerce traders with consumer protection rules. The empirical analysis investigates whether 300 traders from four jurisdictions (France, Germany, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom) com...
A l’occasion du 20e anniversaire du Conseil National de l’Alimentation à Nantes fin 2005, un colloque international a été organisé sous la direction de François Collart-Dutilleul : LA RÉGULATION DU COMMERCE COMMUNAUTAIRE ET INTERNATIONAL DES ALIMENTS, 1ères Rencontres Louis LORVELLEC. Ce sont les actes de ce colloque que la RIDE a choisi de publier en tant que premier « Dossier » de la revue. Il s’articule autour des trois tables rondes qui avaient été organisées avec des participants européens et américains. La question principale était de savoir si l’on peut penser spécifiquement le droit du commerce international des aliments. Les analyses et les propositions de je...
En défendant le principe de Sécurité sociale de l’alimentation, les auteurs montrent qu’une démocratie dans l’alimentation pourrait être le fondement de la nécessaire transformation de notre système alimentaire. Celle-ci toucherait l’agriculture, les chaînes de production, mais aussi de distribution et de restauration. Le modèle libéral actuel offre un choix illusoire aux consommateurs au travers d’une offre de produits s’appuyant sur l’agriculture intensive et une logique de profits. Un système alimentaire démocratique garantit quant à lui à chaque citoyen le pouvoir de décider des modalités de production, de transformation et de distribution ainsi que l’accÃ...
In force in 70 countries around the world and covering more than two thirds of world trade, the 1980 United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) is considered to be the most successful convention promoting international trade. According to many commentators, this success is due, among others, to the fact that the Convention does not directly impact on the domestic law of the various legal systems, as it applies only to international - as opposed to purely domestic - contracts. The Convention, in other words, does not impose changes in the domestic law, which makes it easier for States to adopt the Convention. This does not mean, however, that the Convent...
