Gebonden Engels 2009 9781841138930Samenvatting
In het contractenrecht zijn er nogal wat verschillen tussen het Europees recht en het Angelsaksisch recht. Maar doordat het kooprecht in Europa steeds verder wordt geharmoniseerd zullen de verschillende benaderingen dichter tot elkaar moeten komen. In dit boek onderzoekt Vanessa Mak welke verschillen en overeenkomsten er zijn op het gebied van sancties en komt met een model om de beide stelsels op dit gebied nog dichter bij elkaar te brengen.
