Contract III: General Provisions, Delivery of Goods, Package Travel, Payment Services, Consumer Credit and Commercial Agency Contracts

by Acquis Group (Editor)

The Acquis Group - also known as the European Research Group on Existing EC Private Law - aims to reformulate the present patchwork of directives, regulations, and judgments on EU private law as a coherent restatement known as the Acquis Principles (ACQP). This allows the reader to readily identify commonalities and contradictions in the Acquis. The Acquis Principles include general rules and definitions formulated on the basis of existing EU law, an accompanying commentary that outlines their foundation in the Acquis, and a glossary of core legal terms. Contract III presents numerous new rules, in particular on payment services, consumer credit, and commercial agency contracts. The work is particularly aimed at enriching the current controversial debate on the way forward for a common European sales law. It will be indispensable for academics and civil law practitioners working in a European context. ( Principles of the Existing EC Contract Law [Acquis Principles] - Vol. 3)
