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.

Download or read book Commentaries on European Contract Laws written by Nils Jansen and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-07-12 with total page 2379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book provides rule-by-rule commentaries on European contract law (general contract law, consumer contract law, the law of sale and related services), dealing with its modern manifestations as well as its historical and comparative foundations. After the collapse of the European Commission's plans to codify European contract law it is timely to reflect on what has been achieved over the past three to four decades, and for an assessment of the current situation. In particular, the production of a bewildering number of reference texts has contributed to a complex picture of European contract laws rather than a European contract law. The present book adopts a broad perspective and an integrative approach. All relevant reference texts (from the CISG to the Draft Common European Sales Law) are critically examined and compared with each other. As far as the acquis commun (ie the traditional private law as laid down in the national codifications) is concerned, the Principles of European Contract Law have been chosen as a point of departure. The rules contained in that document have, however, been complemented with some chapters, sections, and individual provisions drawn from other sources, primarily in order to account for the quickly growing acquis communautaire in the field of consumer contract law. In addition, the book ties the discussion concerning the reference texts back to the pertinent historical and comparative background; and it thus investigates whether, and to what extent, these texts can be taken to be genuinely European in nature, ie to constitute a manifestation of a common core of European contract law. Where this is not the case, the question is asked whether, and for what reasons, they should be seen as points of departure for the further development of European contract law.

This book was released on 2006-06-01 with total page 1067 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the result of the Council of Europe Pilot Project on State Practice Regarding State Immunities carried out under the auspices of the Committee of Legal Advisers on Public International Law (CAHDI) since 2002. It presents and analyses the material submitted by 27 Member States and one Observer State of the Council of Europe, including decisions of national courts, relevant legislation and other documents. The analytical report was undertaken by the Department of European, International and Comparative Law of the University of Vienna, the British Institute of International and Comparative Law and the Graduate Institute of International Studies, Geneva. It compares State practice with the relevant articles of the UN Convention, the European Convention on State Immunity and the draft articles prepared by academic institutions. It is the first in depth-analysis of European State practice in the field of State immunity. Such a broad analysis is essential, in particular for the ascertainment of customary international law. This book is addressed to officials, practitioners engaged in business relations with foreign States, and academics. Ce livre est le résultat du Projet Pilote du Conseil de l’Europe sur la Pratique des Etats concernant les immunités des Etats réalisé sous les auspices du Comité des Conseillers Juridiques sur le Droit International Public (CAHDI) depuis 2002. Il présente et analyse la documentation fournie par 28 Etats membres et un Etat observateur du Conseil de l’Europe, y compris des décisions des juridictions nationales, la législation pertinente et d’autres documents. Le rapport analytique a été élaboré par le Département de droit européen, international et comparé de l’Université de Vienne, l’Institut britannique de Droit International et Comparé et l’Institut des Hautes Etudes Internationales, Genève. Il compare la pratique des Etats avec les articles pertinents de la Convention des Nations Unies, de la Convention européenne sur l’immunité des Etats et les projets d’articles préparés par les institutions académiques. C’est la première analyse approfondie de la pratique des Etats européens en matière d’immunité des Etats. Une analyse aussi large est indispensable notamment en vue de l’identification du droit international coutumier. Ce livre s’adresse aux fonctionnaires, aux praticiens entretenant des relations d’affaires avec des Etats étrangers, et aux universitaires.

Download or read book Comparative Law in Practice written by Duncan Fairgrieve and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2016-10-20 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comparative study of contract law, examining the interaction of common law and civil law approaches to contract law. Drawing extensively upon English, French and European law, the book explores how the law of contract of Jersey, Channel Islands, has been influenced by both civil law and common law sources. It is argued that this jurisdiction is a striking example of comparative law in action, given that Jersey contract law is made up of a blend of common law and civil law approaches. Jersey law is premised upon a subjective approach to contracts, in which civil law concepts such as cause (rather than consideration) and vices de consentement are the foundational aspects, but is nonetheless highly influenced by the common law in areas such as remedies (damages, termination, etc). The book analyses a series of key issues from a comparative and European perspective, including the principles underlying contract law (comparing and contrasting civil and common law approaches), the formation of contract, requirements of reciprocity (cause vs consideration), the structure and approach of precontractual liability, the role of good faith in a mixed system, the architecture of remedies, and more.

Book excerpt: The 2002 issue of the Yearbook concerns the notion of reasonableness in philosohical, legal and economic domains.
