Book Description
La réforme du droit des obligations effectuée par l'ordonnance n° 2016-131 du 10 février 2016 et la loi n° 2018-287 du 20 avril 2018 a réécrit un corps de textes resté quasiment inchangé depuis 1804. Souvent présentée comme une œuvre de consolidation, cette réforme a pourtant transformé en profondeur l'état du droit antérieur. Au-delà même des nouveautés immédiatement apparentes, elle a ouvert un nouveau processus d'interprétation des textes par la jurisprudence. Le changement est significatif et l'on ne peut plus, désormais, comprendre et appliquer le droit commun des obligations sans repartir des textes nouveaux établis par le législateur. Cet ouvrage commente, dans une perspective théorique et pratique, l'ensemble des textes issus de la réforme dans l'ordre du Code civil. Depuis ses deux premières éditions, le commentaire s'est enrichi des apports de l'ensemble des acteurs juridiques concernés par le nouveau droit des obligations. Mis à l'épreuve de ces confrontations pratiques, théoriques et contentieuses, le seul texte de la réforme ne suffit plus, en effet, à rendre compte de son application effective et des réflexions suscitées. Il constitue toujours, néanmoins, un point de départ incontournable pour toute réflexion sur le nouveau droit des obligations. Afin de mettre en évidence le fruit de ces apports, cette nouvelle édition s'enrichit de postcommentaires, centrés sur une question pratique, contentieuse ou théorique. Poursuivant ainsi l'ambition initiale de reprendre l'analyse du droit des obligations à partir du texte de la réforme, sans s'arrêter à sa seule analyse littérale, elle ouvre ainsi de plus larges perspectives. Cet ouvrage s'adresse à tous ceux, professionnels, universitaires, étudiants, qui souhaitent découvrir, approfondir et mettre en pratique le nouveau droit des obligations. Il permet de comprendre les nouveaux textes, de les critiquer et de discuter des interprétations possibles.

Book Description
The 2005 Avant-projet de réforme du droit des obligations et de la prescription, also dubbed the Avant-projet Catala, suggests the most far-reaching reform of the French Civil code since it came into force in 1804. It reviews central aspects of contract law, the law of delict and the law of unjustified enrichment. There is currently a very lively debate in France as to the merits or the demerits of both the particular draft provisions and the general idea of recodification as such. This volume is the first publication to introduce the reform proposals to an English speaking audience. It contains the official English translation of the text, and distinguished private lawyers from both England and France analyse and assess particularly interesting aspects of the substantive draft provisions in a comparative perspective. Topics covered include negotiation and renegotiation of contracts, la cause, the enforcement of contractual obligations, termination of contract and its consequences, the effects of contracts on third parties, the definition of la faute, the quantification of damages, and the law of prescription. The volume also contains an overall assessment of the draft provisions by one of the most senior French judges who chaired the Working Party on the Avant-projet, established by the French Supreme Court, the Cour de cassation. The book is indispensable for comparative private lawyers and lawyers with a particular interest in French law. It is also of use to all private lawyers (both academics and practitioners) looking for information on recent international and European trends in contract and tort.

Book Description
The provisions of the French Civil Code governing the law of obligations have remained largely unchanged since 1804 and have served as the model for civil codes across the world. In 2016, the French Government effected major reforms of the provisions on the law of contract, the general regime of obligations and proof of obligations. This work explores in detail the most interesting new provisions on French contract law in a series of essays by French lawyers and comparative lawyers working on French law and other civil law systems. It will make these fundamental reforms accessible to an English-speaking audience.

Book Description
This is the third edition of the widely acclaimed and successful casebook on contract in the Ius Commune series, developed to be used throughout Europe and beyond by anyone who teaches, learns or practises law with a comparative or European perspective. The book contains leading cases, legislation and other materials from English, French and German law as the main representatives of the legal traditions within Europe, as well as EU legislation and case law and extracts from the Principles of European Contract Law. Comparisons are also made to other international restatements such as the Vienna Sales Convention, the UNIDROIT Principles of International Commercial Contracts, the Draft Common Frame of Reference and so on. Materials are chosen and ordered so as to foster comparative study, complemented with annotations and comparative overviews prepared by a multinational team. The third edition includes many new developments at the EU level (including the ill-fated proposal for a Common European Sales Law and further developments linked to the digital single market) and in national laws, in particular the major reform of the French Code civil in 2016 and 2018, the UK's Consumer Rights Act 2015 and new cases. The principal subjects covered in this book include: An overview of EU legislation and of soft law principles, and their interrelation with national law The distinctions between contract and property, tort and restitution Formation and pre-contractual liability Validity, including duties of disclosure Interpretation and contents; performance and non-performance Remedies Supervening events Third parties.

Book Description
After being almost untouched for over 200 years, the contract law section of the French Civil Code was overhauled in 2016 and 2018. The New French Law of Contract describes, explains and analyses the new general principles of contract law in the reformed Code in a concise and stimulating way. The areas covered include contract formation, validity, the interpretation and supplementation of terms, the regulation of unfair terms, privity of contract, change of circumstances, breach of contract and remedies. The book examines the ways in which the new articles affirm or depart from the provisions of the 1804 Code and pre-reform case law, giving special attention to changes that have proved to be controversial and the debates that surround them. It also considers the various influences that have shaped the reforms, in particular those from international contract law instruments such as the Principle of European Contract Law and the UNIDROIT Principles. Written from the standpoint of a common lawyer, the book is designed to help readers from a common law background to navigate the innovations in the reforms and the new French law of contract that emerges. It is essential reading for students, researchers, practitioners, law-makers and judges with an interest in comparative law.

Book Description
While the role of comparative law in the courts was previously only an exception, foreign sources are now increasingly becoming a source of law in regular use in supreme and constitutional courts. There is considerable variation between the practices of courts and the role of comparative law, and methods remain controversial. In the US, the issue has been one of intense public debate and it is still one of the major dividing issues in the discussion about the role of the courts. Contributing to the existing discussion of the use of comparative law in the courts, this book provides an inclusive, coherent, and practical analysis of the relevant law and jurisprudence in comparative law in the courts. It examines the consequences for court procedures and the form of judgments, as well as how foreign sources are drawn upon in private international law, European law, administrative law, and constitutional law as well as before general courts. The book also includes case studies of comparative law used in particular spheres of the law, such as tort law and consumer law. Written by practising judges and lawyers as well as leading academics, this book serves as a central reference point concerning the role of comparative law before the courts.
