The occasion of the CISG's 25th anniversary signals something extremely significant in the world of international commercial law:  the true coming of age of the CISG, as evidenced by (and as a result of) several thousand available court and arbitration decisions world-wide applying the\n\u003cbr\u003eCISG.  To celebrate this occasion, a conference was organized by the University of Pittsburgh's Center for International Legal Education and the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law\n\u003cbr\u003e(UNCITRAL). Drafting Contracts Under the CISG is a collaborative and important result of that conference.  This publication brings together the intellectually sophisticated yet extremely practical and original contributions written by leading CISG scholars from around the globe and practitioners experienced in dealing with the CISG.  Included are 140 sample clauses, a complete model sales agreement, and contextual analysis of contract drafting issues. \n\u003cbr\u003e The CISG is a new reality and is very relevant to US attorneys at the planning and negotiation stages of a sales transaction.  It is increasingly the case that a lawyer in the US, or virtually\n\u003cbr\u003eanywhere else, cannot adequately serve a client's needs without knowledge of and skill in using the Convention to help, for example, prevent transactions from aborting over choice of law conflicts, and to offer alternatives that can resolve bargaining impasses.   International commercial lawyers will find sample clauses dealing with major contract issues under the CISG, including:  BL opting into the CISG while providing an appropriate gap-filling\n\u003cbr\u003esource of law BL passage of risk of loss BL right to inspection of goods BL force majeure BL warranties and warranty disclaimers BL limitations on\n\u003cbr\u003eremedies BL choice of forum BL pre-contractual relationships and prior communications BL confidentiality of negotiations BL retention of the power of revocation of an offer BL strict time limits for acceptance of an offer BL the \"battle of the forms\"  BL the law governing contract validity BL parole evidence BL party rights upon breach BL notice requirements to preserve\n\u003cbr\u003erights BL notice of avoidance BL entitlement to interest BL specific performance versus damagesBL buyer's right to substitute goods\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46059422056686,"sku":"9780195340747","price":673.96,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9612\/7726\/files\/9780195340747.jpg?v=1736499320","url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/drafting-contracts-under-the-cisg","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
