An Introduction to European Contract Law
This textbook presents an outline of the emerging multi-level system of contract law in Europe. The book discusses the law of contract at national, European, and international levels, but in an integrated horizontal fashion. At the national level, the focus is mainly, but not exclusively, on English, French, and German law. At the European level, both the acquis communautaire and Common Frame of Reference are carefully analyzed. At the international level, the author concentrates on the Vienna Sales Convention (CISG) as the central instrument with special attention being paid throughout to the dynamics of the Europeanization process. The main horizontal issues addressed in the book include formation, validity, standard terms, interpretation and contents, contract and third parties, supervening events, and non performance and remedies. The book is not limited to a mere discussion of the 'black letter law.' Instead, subjects are placed, where relevant, in the light of the theoretical insights gained from contract theory, and economic and political analysis. This is an accessible textbook for contract law students.
Justifying Contract in Europe
This title explores the normative foundations of European contract law. It addresses fundamental political questions on contract law in Europe from the perspective of leading contemporary political theories. Does the law of contract need a democratic basis? To what extent should it be Europeanised? What justifies the binding force of contract and the main remedies for breach? When should weaker parties be protected? Should market transactions be considered legally void when they are immoral? Which rules of contract law should the parties be free to opt out of? Adopting a critical lens, this book interrogates utilitarian, liberal-egalitarian, libertarian, communitarian, civic republican, and ...
The New European Private Law:Vol. 3:Essays on the Future of Private Law in Europe
In The New European Private Law, Martijn W. Hesselink presents a revised and supplemented collection of essays written over the last five years on European private law. He argues that the creation of a common private law in Europe is not merely a matter of rediscovering the old ius commune or of neutrally establishing the present 'common core' which may be codified in a European Civil Code. Rather, it is a matter of making choices, some of which may be highly controversial. In this book he discusses some of the most important choices which will have to be made with regard to culture, principles, politics, models, rights, concepts and structure in the new European private law.
Justifying Contract in Europe
This title uses contemporary political theories to address fundamental questions on European contract law. It also places these theories in the context of the current European contract law landscape. This book highlights future options for contract law in the EU, and how it may need to change.
Principles of European Law
The Study Group on a European Civil Code has taken upon itself the task of drafting common European principles for the most important aspects of the law of obligations and for certain parts of the law of property in movables which are especially relevant for the functioning of the common market. Like the Commission on European Contract Law's "Principles of European Contract Law", the results of the research conducted by the Study Group on a European Civil Code seek to advance the process of Europeanisation of private law. Among other topics the series tackles sales and service contracts, distribution contracts and security rights, renting contracts and loan agreements, negotiorum gestio, del...
Precontractual Liability in European Private Law
This volume outlines European perspectives on the liability which may follow a break-off of precontractual negotiations.
The Politics of a European Civil Code
With a significant number of claims having been brought under NAFTA Chapter 11 in the last 3 years, public and professional interest in this topic has been growing significantly. Quite simply, anyone doing business under NAFTA, or anyone representing a company doing business under NAFTA, must be completely familiar with the provisions of Chapter 11. Combining expert commentary with complete primary source materials and case law, Kluwer Law International's "Investment Disputes Under NAFTA" is the must-have resource for anyone planning - or already involved in - a Chapter 11 claim. NAFTA's Chapter 11, like many treaties, sets forth rules for arbitration. Current procedures have been developed,...
CFR & Social Justice
This short study aims to evaluate the Draft Common Frame of Refence in terms of social justice. In particular, it addresses the idea of a European notion of social justice, the relationship between private law and democracy, the question whether the DCFR can be regarded as a neo-liberal or socialist project, the values and principles underlying the DCFR, the protection of weaker parties, and the role of general clauses such as good faith.
Commercial Agency, Franchise and Distribution Contracts
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....
