Designed for a two-credit-hour course, the materials present a systematic examination of the difficult issues that can arise out of international sales transactions. In addition to analyzing usual litigation situations, the materials also present issues concerning lawyers as problem-solvers who plan and structure transactions in order to allocate risks and avoid litigation. U.S. and foreign CISG cases are set forth. The book presents copyrighted CLOUT and UNILEX abstracts that are reprinted with permission. Since CISG is a composite of both civil law and common law concepts, also included are readings that explain these civil law concepts where they arise in CISG.
This is a special break-out edition adapted from the authors' widely used International Business Transactions: A Problem-Oriented Coursebook , 11th. The purpose of this volume is to facilitate a focused study of the law of international trade and economic relations. After a brief introduction to the conduct of business in the world community, the book uses hypothetical problems to present some of the most typical and important issues regarding imports, exports, technology transfers, and dispute settlement in conjunction with related readings and materials. The primary focus is on lawyers, public and private, as problem solvers.
Description Coming Soon!
The First Edition of Principles of International Business Transactions is designed for users of the authors' popular problem-oriented coursebook, International Business Transactions, but can be used effectively with any international trade/economic law course materials. Coverage moves sequentially from international sales and letters of credit to regulation of internaional trade to transfers of technology to foreign investment to dispute settlement. Full citations and analyses are provided.
Nearly every problem in the coursebook in some way involves the application of documentary law. This supplement provides primary legal authority indispensable to resolution of the many issues raised. Includes full text of both U.N. Convention on Contracts for International Sale of Goods (CISG) and its companion, Convention on Limitation Period in International Sales of Goods. There are three international conventions on choice of law: The Hague Convention (1955), Inter-American Convention (1994), and EEC Convention (1980). Where the coursebook makes direct comparisons between CISG and UCC, Official Comments have been included, otherwise, only statutory language is provided.
This Nutshell examines the legal rules governing international trade and economic relations. After initial chapters on the legal and practical environment for trade enterprises, it analyzes the principal institutions and rules governing international trade. Special attention is paid to the World Trade Organization (WTO), the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT), the WTO Dispute Settlement Body, regulation of imports (including tariff rates, customs classification and valuation, and rules of origin), and trade remedy responses to import competition. Export controls, foreign corrupt practices, preferential trade agreements, and the trade law of the European Union and the North American Free Trade Agreement are also examined. U.S. law coverage is emphasized.
