Unjust Enrichment and Public Law
ISBN: 9781841134147 / Angielski / Twarda / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book examines claims involving unjust enrichment and public bodies in France, England, and the EU. Part 1 explores the law as it now stands in England and Wales as a result of cases such as Woolwich EBS v IRC, those resulting from the decision of the European Court of Justice (ECJ) in Metallgesellschaft and Hoechst v IRC, and those involving Local Authority swaps transactions. So far, these cases have been viewed from either a public or a private law perspective, whereas, in fact, both branches of the law are relevant. The book argues that the courts ought not to lose sight of the public...

Performance-Oriented Remedies in European Sale of Goods Law
ISBN: 9781841138930 / Angielski / Twarda / 244 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Contractual remedies aimed at performance create a well-known rift between common law and civil law traditions, in the one existing in the shadow of damages, while in the other regarded as a generally enforceable right following from the contract. Developments in approximation of laws in Europe, in particular in consumer sales law, suggest however that a convergence of these approaches may be within reach. Putting the focus on the contract of sale, which, as the most common type of contract, may fulfill a leading role in the harmonization process, this book provides a model for further...

Restitutionary Rights to Share in Damages: Carers' Claims
ISBN: 9780521800655 / Angielski / Twarda / 314 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book explains the phenomenon of shared damages by which a stranger to litigation is entitled to share in the damages recovered in a legal suit. Two prominent examples are the carer, entitled to share in the fund of damages recovered by a victim of tort, and the indemnity insurer, entitled to participate in damages won by the insured. Simone Degeling argues that the right to share is given to reduce the potential of the claimant's unjust enrichment. This analysis interests restitution and tort lawyers, as well as academic institutions and court libraries.

The Harmonisation of European Contract Law: Implications for European Private Laws, Business and Legal Practice
ISBN: 9781841135915 / Angielski / Twarda / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. After an extended period in which the European Community has merely nibbled at the edges of national contract law, the bite of a European contract law has lately become more pronounced. Many areas of law, from competition and consumer law to gender equality law, are now the subject of determined efforts at harmonization, though they are perhaps often seen as peripheral to mainstream commercial contract law. Despite continuing doubts about the constitutional competence of the Commission to embark on further harmonization in this area, European contract law is now taking shape with the...

ISBN: 9781855732506 / Angielski / Twarda / 262 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book aims to explain the principles of contract law for the businessman, and to put those principles into their commercial context. Anyone involved in commercial transactions needs at least a basic understanding of the principles of contract law - the legal framework for all commercial activity. A lack of such a basic understanding at best results in a business which is less competitive and ultimately less profitable than it should be, and at worst can have expensive and sometimes disastrous commercial consequences.

Rehabilitating Lochner: Defending Individual Rights against Progressive Reform
ISBN: 9780226043531 / Angielski / Twarda / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In this timely reevaluation of an infamous Supreme Court decision, David E. Bernstein provides a compelling survey of the history and background of Lochner v. New York. This 1905 decision invalidated state laws limiting work hours and became the leading case contending that novel economic regulations were unconstitutional. Sure to be controversial, Rehabilitating Lochner argues that the decision was well grounded in precedent--and that modern constitutional jurisprudence owes at least as much to the limited-government ideas of Lochner proponents as to the more...

Unexpected Circumstances in European Contract Law
ISBN: 9781107003408 / Angielski / Twarda / 714 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The recent financial crisis has questioned whether existing contracts may be adapted, terminated or renegotiated as a result of unexpected circumstances. The question is not a new one. In medieval times the notion of clausula rebus sic stantibus was developed to cope with such situations, and Germany introduced the theory of Wegfall der Geschaftsgrundlage. In England, the Coronation cases provided one possible answer. This comparative study explores the possibility of classifying jurisdictions as 'open' or 'closed' in this regard."

Rights and Private Law
ISBN: 9781849461429 / Angielski / Twarda / 684 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The notion of rights is foundational to private law. What is distinctive about private law is that it recognizes and gives effect to the rights that individuals have against other individuals. In recent years, a strand of thinking has developed in private law which has come to be known as 'rights-based' analysis. This analysis seeks to develop an understanding of private law obligations, which is driven by the recognition of the rights we have against each other rather than by other influences on private law, such as the pursuit of community welfare goals. A rights-based understanding of...

Business Contracts Handbook
ISBN: 9780566088568 / Angielski / Twarda / 442 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. If money is the lifeblood of business, contracts are the arteries that help carry it around the commercial body. Anyone in business is liable to have to deal with business contracts, but few are trained to do so. Even those that are trained may have experience in limited areas or in the distant past. But the right contract can make a vital difference, not just to recording and enforcing, if need be, the contract terms, but also in ensuring the agreement deals with the real issues and approaches them in a practical way. Finding help in this area is not easy, as the market tends to offer little...

The analysis extends beyond Europe, however, taking into account the mixed legal system of South Africa, as well as the United States. Finally,...

Getting Incentives Right: Improving Torts, Contracts, and Restitution
ISBN: 9780691173740 / Angielski / Miękka / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Lawyers, judges, and scholars have long debated whether incentives in tort, contract, and restitution law effectively promote the welfare of society. If these incentives were ideal, tort law would reduce the cost and frequency of accidents, contract law would lubricate transactions, and restitution law would encourage people to benefit others. Unfortunately, the incentives in these laws lead to too many injuries, too little contractual cooperation, and too few unrequested benefits. Getting Incentives Right explains how law might better serve the social good. In tort law,...
