Fundamental Texts On European Private Law

Abstract

Among the most significant legal developments of our time is the emergence of a European private law. The European Union enacts directives that profoundly affect the practice, teaching and study of core areas of ‘classical’ private law. Internationally, commissions have formulated principles of European trusts, contract and commercial law. Furthermore, uniform private law can be found in a number of international conventions. This second edition gathers together fundamental texts from these three sources into one convenient volume. Its emphasis is on general civil and commercial law, particularly on the obligations and property aspects of these. This second edition is a sister volume to the original German edition, now in its 5th edition. The Editors would like to thank Lucy Olley and Daniela Esposito, both of Warwick University, for their help in gathering and preparing the material for this edition.
