There is no better occasion than the 25th anniversary of the United Nation Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) to examine whether, and if so, to what extent that Convention has reached its goal of unifying the law of international sale of goods. By giving an account of how that Convention had been applied in the various countries, the papers published in this book allow the reader to assess the degree of uniformity reached and, ultimately, determine how successful that Convention really is. Published in co-operation with Bruylant (Belgium) and FEC (France).
Contracts for the International Sale of Goods provides an examination of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG). Extensively referenced, this volume focuses on three fundamental issues, which, due to added attention from courts and arbitral tribunals, are considered “typical” of CISG related disputes. These include the exact determination of the CISG’s sphere of application; issues relating to the non-conformity of delivered goods; and the determination of the rate of interest on sums in arrears. This analysis will also help readers understand the broader context in which these issues are embedded, and ultimately illustrates how the CISG is interpreted and applied in different jurisdictions. A special course adoption price is available for an order of six or more copies from a university bookstore. Contact [email protected] or [email protected].
Also sometimes referred to as the Vienna Sales Convention, the Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) regulates the rights of buyers and sellers in international sales. The Convention, which first entered into effect in 1988, is the first sales law treaty to win acceptance on a worldwide scale. The current list of more than 90 Contracting States accounts for more than three-fourths of all world trade. The importance of the CISG in the international arena is underlined by thousands of reported decisions where the CISG has been held to apply, thus evidencing the conduct of countless international traders who-by default or by express choice-regularly subject their sales contracts to the Convention regime. The CISG has also impacted on sales legislation at national and regional (e.g. EU) levels. With this monograph as their guide, lawyers and scholars who deal with international sales contracts and sales contract disputes will obtain an excellent overview of the Convention, as well as valuable information as to all its 101 Articles, compromising key topic areas such as the following: Determining when the CISG applies; Freedom of contract under Article 6; Interpretation of the Convention and of CISG contracts; Sales contract formation, validity, defences to enforcement; Obligations of the parties, including conforming delivery & notice of non-conformity; Liability and remedies for breach, including specific performance, damages, avoidance/termination; Liability exemptions; Reservations under Articles 92-96. The Third Edition of this IEL monograph takes account of the latest scholarly commentary as well as key CISG case law worldwide.
Nations in all regions of the world today share a common international sales law, The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG). The Convention was prepared by the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL) and adopted by a diplomatic conference on 11 April 1980. Since then, the number of countries that have adopted the CISG account for over two-thirds of all world trade. The area of international sales law continues to grow as technology and development take us to a global economy. As such, the study of the CISG has become an integral component of this ever-growing area of international commercial law. The Review of the CISG is published once yearly and features articles written by prominent legal scholars in the field of international sale of goods from around the world. In addition to scholarly writings analyzing the various articles of the CISG, the book seeks to compile translations of recent decisions as well as commentaries of notable cases relating to the CISG. The Review of the CISG provides both a forum for legal discussion within the international legal community in the area of international sales law and as an authoritative source of reference for international scholars.
Thirty years afterthe approval on the 19th April 1980, the United Nations Convention on Contractsfor the International Sale of Goods, the CISG, has become the law ofinternational sales. In the meantime 76 states have ratified the CISG whichmake up for more than two thirds of the global trade. Despite CISG's practicalimportance and its global reach the commentary literature on the CISG inEnglish, the language of international trade, is rather limited. This book isintended to fill this gap and to supplement the few existing commentaries by atruly international work which takes into account the various legal settings inwhich the CISG is applied. The Commentary is designed as a German type ofcommentary which provides an authoritative "Article-by-Article"comment to the CISG. Its structure strictly follows the structure of theprovisions of the Convention. Specific topics, e.g. E-Commerce and the CISG,comparative contract texts such as Unidroit Principles of InternationalCommercial Contracts, European Principles of Contract Law and Draft CommonFrame of Reference, are dealt with in the context of the comments of thepertinent articles. The Incoterms are also dealt with in detail.
