Droit commercial international
Introduction

Le droit commercial international est un corps de règles, de principes et de pratiques coutumières qui gouvernent les activités commerciales transfrontalières des personnes de droit privé. En tant que tel, le droit commercial international fait partie du droit international privé, alors que le droit du commerce international, qui régit les relations commerciales entre les États, fait partie du droit international économique, qui est une branche du droit international public. Comme les principes et les règles coutumières applicables aux transactions transfrontalières diffèrent en fonction des cultures, il existe une forte tendance à l'harmonisation et à l'unification de ces règles.

Gillette, C.P. and Walt, S.D., The UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods: Theory and Practice, New York, Cambridge University Press, 2016.
View this title in our discovery serviceUpdated and expanded for the second edition, this volume provides attorneys, academics and students with a detailed yet accessible overview of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG). Adopted by more than eighty nations and governing a significant portion of international sales, the CISG regulates contract formation, performance, risk of loss, conformity to contractual requirements and remedies for breach. This volume explains the CISG doctrines and their ambiguities, and appraises the extent to which the doctrines reduce transaction costs for commercial actors. Its topic-based approach will be ideal for those pursuing academic analysis or subject-specific research.
Toth, O., Lex Mercatoria in Theory and Practice, Oxford, Oxford University Press, 2017.
View this title in our discovery serviceThe book offers a theoretically justified and pragmatic concept of the so-called 'lex mercatoria' contributing to the debate concerning the existence of this law as an autonomous, a-national and universal legal system established by trade practice. It argues that a rule of the lex mercatoria is established if there is a majority congruent behaviour within a business community followed out of fear of criticism and a willingness to criticize others in case of deviation. This two-element test increases legal certainty and potentially reduces the time and costs of proving the rule. Case studies are included to illustrate the practical implications of the analysis and more difficult issues such as burden of proof, admissible evidence and the role of written harmonization measures are also considered. The approach adopted in the book reduces the elusiveness of the concept and offers an analysis which makes the lex mercatoria clearer for scholars and more attractive for practitioners.
