Highly relevant in practice and challenging in terms of legal theory: contractual networks of independent businesses are widespread and diverse in modern business life. But what does "contractual business network" actually mean? How does it differ from other forms of cooperation, especially those under corporate law? Who is liable and how?Nina Marie Güttler succeeds in making contractual networks distinguishable on the basis of their legal, economic and sociological foundations and in classifying them dogmatically in German law. For franchise practice, she translates the insights gained into specific rights and obligations of franchisees. A work that is equally interesting for academia, the judiciary and the advocacy. Praxisrelevant und rechtstheoretisch herausfordernd: Vertragsnetze zwischen Unternehmen sind im modernen Wirtschaftsleben weitverbreitet und vielfältig. Doch was verbirgt sich überhaupt hinter einem „Unternehmensvertragsnetz“? Worin unterscheidet es sich von anderen, insbesondere gesellschaftsrechtlichen Kooperationen? Wie wird gehaftet?Nina Marie Güttler gelingt es, Unternehmensvertragsnetze anhand ihrer rechtlichen, ökonomischen und wirtschaftssoziologischen Grundlagen unterscheidbar zu machen und dogmatisch fundiert einzuordnen. Für die Franchisepraxis setzt sie die gewonnenen Erkenntnisse zudem in konkrete Rechte und Pflichten um. Eine Arbeit, die für Wissenschaft, Rechtsprechung und anwaltliche Beratung gleichermaßen interessant ist.

The work has been authored by 3 experts in enforcement law to analyse whether an administration or government may release software as open source. Das vorliegende Werk wurde von drei Rechtspraktikern im Rahmen einer Studie verfasst und beantwortet die Frage, ob es nach geltendem Recht zulässig ist, dass der Staat Software, die er selber nutzt und über deren Urheberrecht er verfügt, unter einer „Open-Source“-Lizenz der Öffentlichkeit zur Ver- fügung stellt, bzw. auf welcher föderalen Ebene und auf wel- cher Normstufe entsprechende Rechtsgrundlagen zu schaffen wären. Grundlage bildet die Situation im Kanton Bern (Schweiz) und gemäss schweizerischer Bundesverfassung.

Through recent changes in Dutch (1992) and English (1999) private law, contracts for a third-party beneficiary are, in Western Europe, nowadays considered to be effective and enforceable. This concept is, however, incompatible with both the civilian tradition on the continent and the traditional parties-only rule of English common law. The purpose of this study is to show how the problem of the third-party beneficiary was dealt with during the various periods of Western legal thought and to discuss the subject from the perspective of present-day comparative law. The book is of interest not only to legal historians, but also to all who are engaged with present-day private law – scholars, practitioners and advanced students. Contributors include David Ibbetson, Regius Professor of Civil Law at the University of Cambridge, and Hendrik Verhagen, Professor of Private International Law, Comparative Law and Civil Law at the Radboud University Nijmegen, attorney at the firm Clifford Chance Amsterdam, and deputy justice at the Court of Appeal, ’s-Hertogenbosch.

The Commentary on the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties provides an in-depth article-by-article analysis of all of the Vienna Convention’s provisions. Each provision’s analysis consists of (I) Purpose and Function of the Article, (II) Historical Background with Negotiating History, (III) Elements of the Article and finally (IV) Treaties of International Organizations. In short, the present Commentary contains a comprehensive legal analysis of all aspects of the international law of treaties. Furthermore, where the law of treaties reaches into other fields of international law, e.g. the law of state responsibility, the relevant interfaces are discussed and contextualized. With its focus on international practice, the Commentary is an invaluable reference for both academia and practitioners of international law.

Interpretation has always had a prominent place in international adjudication, yet its role has been further enhanced during the last few decades with the expansion of the regulatory range of international law and the proliferation of international judicial bodies. In such a diverse new world and celebrating the 30 years since the entry into force of the VCLT, this Volume on Treaty Interpretation attempts a much needed re-examination of the issues of treaty interpretation. In the first part of this Volume the authors focus on the VCLT itself and examine the nature of interpretation and the normative content of the relevant provisions. In the second and third parts of the Volume the analysis turns to the characteristics of treaty interpretation as applied within two of the most important sectors of international law id est that of trade and investment law on the one hand and of human rights on the other. Such a two-tiered approach allows for a more comprehensive understanding of the content and function of the principles of interpretation as enshrined in Articles 31-33 of the VCLT.
