Fundamental Texts on European Private Law

About this book

"Among the most significant legal developments of our time is the emergence of a European private law. The European Union enacts directives which profoundly affect the practice, teaching and study of core areas of 'classical' private law. [International] 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 ... volume. Its emphasis is on general civil and commercial law, particularly on the obligations and property aspects of these."--
