\u003cp\u003e\nThe nineteen outstanding contributors to this deeply insightful book concur in \nenvisioning a fundamentally new systematic concept of contract law that, while \npreserving the essential \u0026#8216;architecture\u0026#8217; of the existing European codes, would \nnonetheless find cogent ways to integrate such modern developments as mass \ntransactions, chains and networks of contracts, regulation of markets and \ncontracts to protect consumers, and service and long-term contracts into an \noptional European code.\n\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe book is organised along three major avenues:\n\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n\u0026#8226; the systematic arrangement of a contract law code - how it deals with core \nquestions of formation and performance or breach of contract, such as mistake \nand misrepresentation, standard contract terms, and remedies in the case of \nbreach of contract;\n\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n\u0026#8226; the apparent necessity to merge consumer contract law (i.e. such issues as \nproduct safety and liability, warranties, and consumer debt and insolvency) \nwith traditional core contract law concepts; and\n\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n\u0026#8226; the importance to substantive contract law of the pre-contractual phase, in \nwhich information duties are becoming steadily more paramount.\n\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe authors perspectives cover a wide range of jurisdictions, including new EU \nMember States. The book\u0026#8217;s commitment to an integration of comparative law, EC \nlaw, and the debate on European codification offers practitioners and \nacademics fertile ground for the development of a new model of contract law \nthat is more than a common denominator of what has been in force so far. This \nmodel may serve as a basis for Europe-wide and perhaps even worldwide \ndiscussion.\n\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n\n\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n\n\u003c/p\u003e |
