Contract II

The Acquis Group - also known as the European Research Group on Existing EC Private Law - pursues the objective of presenting, in a restated form known as the Acquis Principles (ACQP), the large and sometimes incoherent patchwork of existing EC private law. These Principles reflect the current state of EC law in a structure which allows for the identification of commonalities, contradictions, and gaps in the Acquis. The Acquis Principles include: general rules formulated on the basis of existing EC law; an accompanying commentary, outlining the foundations in the Acquis; and definitions of core legal terms and a glossary on terminology. This present volume is the second of a series. The book combines a revision of the parts of the ACQP published in the first volume - Contract I - with many new rules on remedies for non-performance, as well as certain specific situations or contracts, such as delivery of goods, package travel, and payment services.

Contract I

The Acquis Group - also known as the European Research Group on Existing EC Private Law - pursues the objective of presenting, in a restated form known as the Acquis Principles, the large and sometimes incoherent patchwork of existing EC private law. These principles reflect the current state of EC law in a structure which allows for the identification of commonalities, contradictions, and gaps. They function as a tool for the better understanding and improvement of EC private law. They are also intended to ensure that the existing EC law is appropriately reflected in the broader Common Frame of Reference. The principles include a commentary outlining the Acquis foundations, as well as definitions of core legal terms and a glossary on terminology. Formulated with the Acquis Principles in mind, Contract I is the first of a new series. It covers the areas of general EC contract law which surround the formation of contracts, including key rules on pre-contractual duties, the conclusion of a contract, and its content.

Law, Regulation and Governance in the Information Society

  • Categories: Law

This edited collection seeks to map the landscape of contemporary informational interests, to evaluate a range of recognised and putative rights and wrongs associated with modern information societies, and to consider how law, regulation, and governance should be deployed in response.

In our ‘information societies’, we entertain mixed hopes and expectations, as well as significant fears and concerns.
