The Draft Common Frame of Reference national and comparative perspectives

Beschrijving

The Draft Common Frame of Reference is the result of more than 25 years of academic research on European private law, and was published in October 2009. Against this background, this book presents and critically analyses the DCFR, and situates it in relation to current Belgian and European private law. The issues discussed include i.a. contracts and other juridical acts, obligations and corresponding rights, multi-party relationships, interpretation of contracts, non-contractual liability, tort law, property law, security rights and transfer of movables, sales agreements and specific contracts such as commercial agency, franchise and distributorship, etc.This is a unique and challenging book, one that has few to compare it to as it deals with important issues and evolutions in a directive and focused manner. Recommended and invaluable reading for both academics and lawyers who like to disrupt their own thinking and learn more by being challenged than having their beliefs confirmed.With contributions of Bram Akkermans, Christian von Bar, Odavia Bueno Daz, Ignace Claeys, Eric Clive, Julie Del Corral, Tm Dang Vu, Eric Dirix, Wolfgang Faber, Wouter den Hollander, Marco B.M.
