International contracting

"[This book takes] into account the hugely increasing volume of international trade, its ongoing expansion into more and more countries worldwide, and the concomitant need for businesspersons and transactional lawyers to be aware of the numerous recent international conventions and supranational responses to facilitate trade. [It includes] analysis of key contract issues unique to various types of contracting, common contract clauses (such as choice of law and dispute resolution clauses), contract checklists, insights gleaned from actual cases and arbitral proceedings, and clear explanation of the principles of good contract drafting. The major relevant international conventions, model laws, pertinent national laws, legal guides, and other documents and instruments are all covered, with primary texts provided in appendices. Among the numerous issues and topics that arise are the following: incorporation of standard terms; difficulties of multiple language contracts; lex mercatoria; liability based upon preliminary agreements; issues of termination; regulation of Internet sales; role of model or uniform laws; sale of services; national law restrictions on the cross-border sale of services; intellectual property transfer and licensing agreements; franchising and joint ventures; electronic contracting; and confidentiality, nondisclosure agreements, and covenants not to compete. This book presents...negotiating strategies, sample contract clauses, drafting 'tips, ' contract checklists, and case studies and provides easy access to the myriad of issues and solutions related to the drafting of international contracts."--
