New Private Law Theory: A Pluralist Approach

New Private Law Theory opens a new pathway to private law theory through a pluralistic approach. Such a theory needs a broad and stable foundation, which the authors have built here through a canon of nearly seventy texts of reference. This book brings these different texts from different disciplines into conversation with each other, grouping them around central questions of private law and at the same time integrating them with the legal doctrinal analysis of example cases. This book will be accessible to both experienced and early career scholars working on private law.

Legal Theory & Systems

Cambridge University Press

This book introduces and develops the paradigm of the organisational contract in European contract law. Suggesting that a more radical distinction should be made between contracts which regulate single or spot exchanges and contracts that organize complex economic activities without creating a new legal entity, the book argues that this distinction goes beyond that between spot and relational contracts because it focuses on the organizational dimension of contracting and its governance features. Divided into six parts, the volume brings together a group of internationally renowned experts to examine the structure of long-term contractual cooperation; networks of contracts; knowledge exchange in long-term contractual cooperation; remedies and specific governance rules in long-term relationships; and the move towards legislation. The book will be of value to academics and researchers in the areas of private law, economic theory and sociology of law, and organizational theory. It will also be a useful resource for practitioners working in international contract law and international business transaction law.

The Organizational Contract: From Exchange to Long-Term Network Cooperation in European Contract Law (Markets and the Law)

Foreign & International Law

Over the last decade, European company law has been completely re-written. Virtually no EU measure remained unchanged and most of them have undergone fundamental reform. This is astonishing since almost half of these measures only came into existence after the turn of the millennium. In the last five years, 'modern' European company law has been characterized by a strong foundation of accounting law: i.e. the basic information scheme in international models (IFRS); the practicability and reality of cross-border mobility in its different types; and the considerable success (at last) of European company types, namely in the form of the European Company, which has been adopted by many blue chip companies, and, finally, by governance. The latter is also experiencing a remarkable renaissance of shareholders' rights, namely voting right schemes. In times of crisis, this is the equipment with which the challenges have to be met. European Company Law first discusses the EC/EU law, including all instruments through which it is transposed into the national law systems. However, where no EC/EU law exists, a comparative law discussion and the policy aspects - namely law and economics - fill the gaps. The whole organism of (limited liability) company law is thus covered. In addition to organization, accounting, finance, and the closely-related capital market law, this second edition covers the cornerstones of EC/EU corporate tax and insolvency law. This broad scientific perspective of the 'European' in company law remains unique and will be of greatest value for top-level practice and highly-ranked policy discussions.

The Contract is the core tool of governance in a free market economy. An EU Contract Law Code is now on the political agenda because all three legislative bodies in the EU and most member states favour it in principle. In its communication of July 2001, the Commission proposed three major options: to enhance the existing EC Contract Law by eliminating inconsistencies; introducing a European Code which substitutes national laws; and introducing a European code which only supplements national laws. 
This book achieves three things: For the first time, European academia is discussing these three options in an extensive and systematic way with pros and cons, in a transparent and systematic way, along broad lines and often also important details. The book contains the views of all protagonists from all those who really drafted the models to all those who illustrated the potential of decentralized rule-making and invented the very idea of an Optional Code. This is the first book in which the optional Code, which is the alternative most likely to come, is thoroughly analysed at all. 
This work also contains a full map of design possibilities. It is the executive summary of what European academia thinks of the future of European Contract Law and a European Code. It is the Academic Green Paper on European Contract Law.

European company law, over the last five years, has developed thoroughly: with accounting now under IAS/IFRS, with prospectus, takeover, market abuse, transparency and cross-border merger directives, with the implementation of the European company and the European cooperative society into national laws and with the ECJ case law (from Centros, Ãœberseering and Golden Shares to Sevic) making cross-border mobility an overall reality. Consequently, European company law is fundamentally new. This book discusses the EC law first, with all the instruments through which it is transposed into the national law systems. However, where no such EC law exists, a comparative law discussion and policy aspects, namely law and economics, fill in the gaps. The whole organism of (limited liability) company law is thus covered. The overall description of European company law includes the organization, accounting, finance and-closely related-capital market law, as well as the cornerstones of EC corporate tax and insolvency law. This broad scientific perspective of the European in company law is new and indeed unique, of great value also in top-level practice. This book has been written for practitioners who want to be sure about the European aspects of company law and corporate finance. It is also suitable for students who want to focus on this area and prepare themselves for it, and has been written to foster scientific discussion. The author is Professor of German and European private and business law at Humboldt University Berlin. He is initiator of the newly founded European Law Institute, which specialises in European legislation, and of the European Law School (Berlin, London and Paris), which trains truly European lawyers in national dogmatics, in EC law, in the three major national law systems and in interdisciplinary approaches. He specialises in European private law and in national contract, company and banking law.
