This convenient volume contains the heart of the matter. It focuses on the essential elements that make a contract 'international' in the new sense, and the interrelationships between those elements, rather than on the constantly changing mass of attendant detail. It provides a clear understanding of the principles that underlie the structure of a sound international commercial contract, and gives the practitioner the insight necessary to negotiate such a contract successfully, whatever the particular circumstances.
To clarify such an understanding of 'internationalization,' the author describes and analyzes aspects of the following international contract law regimes:
- * The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG);
- * The UNIDROIT Principles;
- * CISG and UNIDROIT Jurisprudence;
- * Thelex mercatoria and other international, regional, and national contract law principles;
- * Privately established rules, standards, and certifications;
- * Model contracts, provisions, and standards; and
- * International commercial arbitration regimes and other non-national dispute resolution fora.
A final chapter deals exclusively with practical applications - when to and when not to 'internationalize' a contract, how to plan for effectiveness and the best advantage, and selecting appropriate and consistent devices for 'internationalization.'
