Background Information

Like the first volume, the book will contain leading cases, legislation and other materials from the legal traditions within Europe, with a focus on English, French and German law as the main representatives of those traditions. The book will contain the basic texts and contrasting cases as well as extracts from the various international restatements (Vienna Sales Convention, UNIDROIT, Principles of European Contract Law and so on). Materials will be chosen and ordered so as to foster comparative study, and complemented with annotations and comparative overviews prepared by a multinational team.

The principal subjects covered in this book will again include: General; Formation; Validity; Interpretation and Contents; Supervening Events; Remedies; Third Parties; The Tort/Contract Divide; Causation; Remedies; Fault and Unlawfulness; Liability for Others; Liability not based on fault as well as defences.
