Publisher's Synopsis
This book is intended as a supplement to an existing commercial transactions survey course, but could also be used as a stand-alone text for a seminar or other specialized elective course. It seeks to provide an international perspective and also sufficient domestic context to facilitate a comparative-law discussion. The book includes staples of international commercial law, such as the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) and international insolvency, but also items of particular contemporary concern, including clawbacks, microfinance, and religious objections to the payment of interest in commercial contracts.
