Download or read book Reforming the French Law of Obligations written by John Cartwright and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2009-04-17 with total page 950 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 2005 Avant-projet de réforme du droit des obligations et de la prescription, also dubbed the Avant-projet Catala, suggests the most far-reaching reform of the French Civil code since it came into force in 1804. It reviews central aspects of contract law, the law of delict and the law of unjustified enrichment. There is currently a very lively debate in France as to the merits or the demerits of both the particular draft provisions and the general idea of recodification as such. This volume is the first publication to introduce the reform proposals to an English speaking audience. It contains the official English translation of the text, and distinguished private lawyers from both England and France analyse and assess particularly interesting aspects of the substantive draft provisions in a comparative perspective. Topics covered include negotiation and renegotiation of contracts, la cause, the enforcement of contractual obligations, termination of contract and its consequences, the effects of contracts on third parties, the definition of la faute, the quantification of damages, and the law of prescription. The volume also contains an overall assessment of the draft provisions by one of the most senior French judges who chaired the Working Party on the Avant-projet, established by the French Supreme Court, the Cour de cassation. The book is indispensable for comparative private lawyers and lawyers with a particular interest in French law. It is also of use to all private lawyers (both academics and practitioners) looking for information on recent international and European trends in contract and tort.

Download or read book The New French Law of Contract written by Solène Rowan and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022-08-22 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After being almost untouched for over 200 years, the contract law section of the French Civil Code was overhauled in 2016 and 2018. The New French Law of Contract describes, explains and analyses the new general principles of contract law in the reformed Code in a concise and stimulating way. The areas covered include contract formation, validity, the interpretation and supplementation of terms, the regulation of unfair terms, privity of contract, change of circumstances, breach of contract and remedies. The book examines the ways in which the new articles affirm or depart from the provisions of the 1804 Code and pre-reform case law, giving special attention to changes that have proved to be controversial and the debates that surround them. It also considers the various influences that have shaped the reforms, in particular those from international contract law instruments such as the Principle of European Contract Law and the UNIDROIT Principles. Written from the standpoint of a common lawyer, the book is designed to help readers from a common law background to navigate the innovations in the reforms and the new French law of contract that emerges. It is essential reading for students, researchers, practitioners, law-makers and judges with an interest in comparative law.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Réunissant les actes du colloque qui s'est tenu à l'université de Nîmes le 7 octobre 2022, l'ouvrage entend discuter l'avant-projet de réforme du droit des contrats spéciaux, élaboré par la commission présidée par le professeur Philippe Stoffel-Munck. Articulé autour des évolutions législatives envisagées, des défis à relever et de questions à la marge suscitées par la réforme à venir, l'ensemble des contributions apporte un éclairage critique sur le texte, mêlant droit positif et droit prospectif, portant état des lieux et état des voeux. En replaçant utilement le débat généré par la réforme au sein de son environnement juridique et face à des enjeux contemporains, l'ouvrage propose une réflexion transversale sur ce que pourrait être - devrait être - le droit français des contrats spéciaux de demain. Répondant à la consultation publique ouverte depuis la publication du texte, les présents actes nourrissent plus globalement les débats relatifs à l'identité, aux fondements et au fonctionnement des institutions du droit civil français. Ainsi, ils ont été choisis pour inaugurer une nouvelle collection des éditions de la Société de législation comparée, dédiée à ces thèmes.

Download or read book French Civil Liability in Comparative Perspective written by Jean-Sébastien Borghetti and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-12-26 with total page 548 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The French law of torts or of extra-contractual liability is widely seen as exceptional. For long it was based on a mere five articles of the Civil Code of 1804, but on this foundation the courts and legal scholars have constructed liabilities for fault and strict liability of an extraordinary breadth and significance. While the rest of the general law of obligations (including contract) in the Civil Code was reformed in 2016 by executive ordonnance, this area was left aside, being the subject in 2017 of a proposal by the French Government for the legislative reform of the law of civil liability, a new legislative category to include both contractual and extra-contractual liability. This work considers important aspects of this developing area of French law in a series of essays by French lawyers and comparative lawyers working in French law and other civil law systems. In doing so, it provides insight into the doctrinal thinking and judgments of French lawyers as well as the possible directions in which this area of the law may be developed in the future.

Download or read book Droit des contrats sp ciaux written by Hugues Kenfack and published by . This book was released on 2017-09-12 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Qualifier un contrat, c'est lui appliquer un corps de règles bien précis. Cette opération juridique prend toute son importance en droit des contrats spéciaux, car elle a pour effet l'application d'un régime spécifique. Bien que nombreux et divers, les contrats ont un socle commun qui a été refondu par l'ordonnance n° 2016-131 du 10 février 2016 portant réforme du droit des contrats, du régime général et de la preuve des obligations. Au régime général s'ajoutent des dispositions, de plus en plus complexes, qui traduisent un mouvement de diversification des contrats. Qualifier les contrats de "spéciaux", témoigne de leur spécialisation et de leur professionnalisation croissante. Le présent ouvrage, à jour de la loi Justice du XXIe siècle, de la réforme du droit des contrats et du projet de réforme de responsabilité civile, s'inscrit dans le prolongement du cours de droit des obligations. Il permet de présenter de façon pédagogique, claire et précise les règles applicables aux grandes catégories de contrats. L'objectif est d'en identifier les éléments caractéristiques, et de comprendre l'articulation entre le droit commun et les règles spéciales applicables à chaque contrat, ainsi que les obligations auxquelles sont tenus les cocontractants.

Download or read book The Rule of Law in International Affairs written by Ian Brownlie and published by Martinus Nijhoff Publishers. This book was released on 1998-08-26 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume consists of a carefully edited version of the General Course on Public International Law delivered at the Hague Academy of International Law to commemorate the fiftieth anniversary of the foundation of the United Nations. The author brings to them not only his background of academic distinction, but his experience as a practitioner concerned with major international legal issues. The rule of law in international affairs is a question of perennial concern but it is of greater moment these days for a number of reasons. The active agenda of the Security Council and its relative solidarity creates a paradox. Its increased political power is a source of hope but the modalities of the exercise of power present problems of principle and of legal concern. Another area of concern is the International Court, which has had a successful record since the early eighties and provides one of the guarantees of the maintenance of legality. Recent successes of the Court include the effective resolution of the territorial dispute between Chad and Libya. The general level of compliance with its decisions by States is impressive. Yet its success is matched not by encouragement and enhancement of its facilities but by United Nations financial constraints which hinder its work and, ultimately, may threaten its independence in relation to the political organs of the United Nations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'ordonnance de réforme du droit des obligations réalisée le 10 février 2016 opère un renouvellement du droit des obligations sans précédent depuis 1804. Du fait de l'articulation entre le droit commun et le droit spécial, la réforme du premier modifie le second. La doctrine s'est jusqu'à présent concentrée sur l'étude du droit commun des contrats résultant des nouveaux textes. Il manquait une étude d'ensemble destinée à mesurer les incidences précises de la réforme sur les contrats spéciaux. Tel est l'objet du présent ouvrage. Celui-ci s'adresse à tous les publics, avocats, notaires, magistrats et étudiants. Les praticiens doivent au plus vite tirer les conséquences de la réforme en vue de modifier leurs pratiques ou de préciser le droit applicable aux diverses situations qui leur sont soumises. Les réformateurs futurs du droit des contrats spéciaux pourront aussi utilement s'inspirer des contributions de cet ouvrage qui tirent les conséquences prospectives de la réforme. Tous les contrats spéciaux ont été passés en revue : les principaux bien sûr (vente, entreprise, bail, société, prêt), mais également ceux qui paraissent moins centraux (association, contrats de distribution, de construction et aléatoires, dépôt, mandat, fiducie, transaction, cautionnement, convention attributive de compétence juridictionnelle et d'arbitrage), de même que ceux qui relèvent d'un corps spécial de règles (travail, statut du fermage). Ainsi conçu, l'ouvrage participe à la réflexion induite par l'ordonnance du 10 février 2016 qui est loin de se tarir.
