Details

Contract law and international trade are two significant and distinct areas of legal practice that often intersect. While rooted in the standard contract law syllabus, this comprehensive advanced textbook seeks to examine the interaction between contract law rules and international trade regulation. It blends in-depth discussion of the most important traditional legal concepts in both these areas of the law with a careful analysis of emerging issues and more contemporary topics, such as digital contracting, trade in services, and the Europeanisation of contract law at the level of the European Union.

Facilitating engagement with the subject matter in a way that bridges foundational legal principles and contemporary debates, the authors provide a rigorous intellectual analysis of the law, where both precedents and applicable legislation are discussed critically. A comparative analysis is offered between English common law, which is used as the constant yardstick, and its EU counterpart. Focusing on key themes such as globalisation, IT and digitalisation, ESG and sustainability, the Covid-19 pandemic, Brexit and human rights, this book allows readers to deepen their knowledge and understanding of contract law and international trade regulation while developing an appreciation of the contemporary relevance of these areas of the law and their challenges.

Contract Law and International Trade Regulation will be a valuable text for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate law students.
