To provide valuable legal service to persons in today's Europe,
practitioners must be conversant in both national and transnational
law. At the European level, the Principles of European Contract Law
(PECL) are an increasingly important element of contract law,
together with national contract law, as contained in Civil Codes
and various national statute. Accordingly, Kluwer Law International
has initiated a series of volumes, under the direction of Prof.
Hondius of the University of Utrecht, comparing PECL with the most
important European legal systems. This volume on Italian law is the
second in the series. Using a straightforward comparative method,
the editors' analysis not only reveals a significant area of
convergence between the PECL and Italian contract law, but also
highlights the main differences between the two bodies of rules.
The book provides complete texts, with annotations, of the PECL and
the corresponding Italian rules. The presentation proceeds as
follows: general provisions (scope of application, general duties,
terminology); formation of contracts (general provisions, offer and
acceptance, liability for negotiations); authority of agents
(general provisions, direct and indirect representation); validity;
interpretation; contents and effects; performance; non-performance
and remedies in general; and, particular remedies for
non-performance (right to performance, withholding performance,
termination of the contract, price reduction, damages and
interest). The book is a valuable handbook and guide for both
foreign and Italian lawyers. For non-Italian lawyers, be they
practitioners or academics, it provides a concise but complete and
up-to-date outline of current Italian contract law, organized on
the basis of a system (PECL) with which many European lawyers are
familiar. For Italian lawyers, it offers a clearer insight into a
wider European legal contract system whose importance in the
evolution of a common European private law is growing rapidly.
