As a work of comparative law it traces the transformation of the Roman law of obligations over the centuries into what is now modern German,English and South African law, presenting the reader with a contrast between these legal systems which is unique both in its scope and its depth. As a whole the book is written with a deep understanding of human nature and of many social, economic, and other forces that determine the face of thelaw.
Download or read book Animals as specific objects of obligations under Polish and German law written by Małgorzata Lubelska-Sazanów and published by V&R unipress. This book was released on 2021-01-18 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Defining where the needs of contracting parties end, and where the mistreatment of animals begins is especially difficult in contract law, where protecting animals is not a basic premise. Thus, although animal law is a widely discussed topic, the position of animals under civil law has not been discussed comprehensively before. The first chapters of the book set the background for subsequent civil law considerations given that the object of a contractual obligation is an animal, and the impact this has on the conclusion, performance and consequences of non-performance of a contract. It constitutes a unique interdisciplinary and comparative work focused mainly on animals in contractual relations (e.g. sale, donation, lease, tenancy, commission, agency, safe-keeping, training contracts).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2018 in the subject Law - Civil / Private / Industrial / Labour, grade: 2, University of applied sciences, Düsseldorf, language: English, abstract: This paper presents the essentials of a contract as a part of the German civil law and how it is governed through this law. An important characteristic of German civil law system which sets it apart from common law system is the codification of core rules received from Roman law. These codes are drafted in order to cover all relationships within the field of law they govern. The provisions of a code are the references for a great many practical legal problems arise within that field over time. The concept of codification was developed in order to form a base where the laws of a given field can be found in one category – the code – instead of creating many judicial decisions. Beside its general part, German civil code contains other four divisions; the law of obligations, the law of property, the law of family or domestic relations, and the law of inheritance. The whole commercial law falls under the law of obligation regulated by the code. This includes e.g. the law of bills, notes, shipping, insurance, patents, copyrights, trademarks, contracts, and business transactions. This way of codification provides all citizens with a collection of laws they must follow. These laws constitute a systematic written collection of interrelated articles arranged by subject of matter.

This book was released on 2007-09-30 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2003 in the subject Law - Comparative Legal Systems, Comparative Law, grade: 67%, Cardiff University (Großbritannien; Law School), course: Comparative Contract Law, language: English, abstract: The UNIDROIT Principles of International Commercial Contracts1 have been published in May 1994 by the Rome-based International Institute for the Unification of Private Law (UNIDROIT), an intergovernmental organisation established in 1926. The Working Group on the UNIDROIT Principles was found in 1980 and consisted of independent legal scholars of all major legal systems of the world. The UNIDROIT Principles are not binding law. Most legal writers agree that they can be characterised as a restatement of the law of international commercial contracts2 and despite the controversial issue about the very existence, scope and content of a lex mercatoria - the possibility of applying supranational law to international legal relationships- most authors agree that it exists and that the UNIDROIT Principles are a significant part of it3. The object of this paper is to examine the UNIDROIT Principles' approach to hardship laid down in Chapter 6, Section 2 and to compare it with its equivalent provision in the German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch, hereinafter BGB), § 3134. For this purpose it is firstly necessary to define the term "hardship". Thereafter I will consider the respective provisions in detail and highlight differences and similarities.

Download or read book The German Law of Contract written by Basil S Markesinis and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2006-02-27 with total page 1034 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recently the contract section of the German Civil Code was amended after one hundred years of un-altered existence. The German Law of Contract, radically recast, enlarged, and re-written since its first edition, now details and explains for the first time these changes for the benefit of Anglophone lawyers. One hundred and twenty translated contract decisions also make this work a unique source-book for students, academics, and practitioners.

Through its method of presentation of German law, the book represents an original contribution to the art of comparison. An additional feature of the Contract volume is the way in which it reveals the growing impact which European Directives are having upon the traditional, liberal, contract model, thereby bringing German and English law closer to each other, especially in the area of consumer protection.

Download or read book Unexpected Circumstances in European Contract Law written by Ewoud Hondius and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2011-03-03 with total page 715 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recent financial crisis has questioned whether existing contracts may be adapted, terminated or renegotiated as a result of unexpected circumstances. The question is not a new one. In medieval times the notion of clausula rebus sic stantibus was developed to cope with such situations, and Germany introduced the theory of Wegfall der Geschäftsgrundlage. In England, the Coronation cases provided one possible answer. This comparative study explores the possibility of classifying jurisdictions as 'open' or 'closed' in this regard.
