The 1980 CISG Convention regulates the rights of buyers and sellers in international sales. The Convention is the first sales-law treaty to gain recognition and approval globally, and the impressive list of more than ninety Contracting States accounts for more than three-fourths of all world trade.

determining when the CISG applies;
freedom of contract, opting out;
interpretation of CISG treaty and CISG contracts;
formation, validity, defenses to enforcement;

liability exemptions, hardship; and
disclaimers, agreed remedies.


How this will help you:

This book, being a compact guide, will aid lawyers and law students, in all parts of the world, not least in the Contracting States where the CISG is now in effect, who need to understand international sales law, sales contracts and sales contract disputes.
