Se ha pretendido que toda obligación debe tener un valor patrimonial. Es esta una teoría errónea que nuestra ciencia debe al descubrimiento de Gayo, y especialmente a la referencia hecha por este (IV, 48) según la cual el juez romano debía hacer recaer la condenación ...

Esta 1ª Edición recoge la estructura y tipos de las garantías, su naturaleza jurídica, así como el rechazo de los requerimientos y sus transferencias.

El agua es un recurso vital, por lo que resulta extremadamente importante regular todos los lugares en los que se encuentra, incluidos los acuíferos, la mayor fuente de agua dulce disponible para la Humanidad. En este libro se ofrece un estudio de la regulacion internacional de los recursos hidricos compartidos, tanto por el Derecho de los Cursos de Agua Internacionales tradicional como de sus desarrollos mas recientes, procedentes del Derecho Internacional del Medio Ambiente, el Derecho Internacional Economico o el Derecho Internacional de los Derechos Humanos, y, de forma especial, el incipiente regimen juridico de los acuiferos transfronterizos.Ademas, se analiza como se han plasmado en esta regulacion la soberania y la cooperacion. Por un lado, los Estados ejercen su soberania sobre el agua que se encuentra en su territorio, a pesar del encaje imperfecto que pueda tener sobre un recurso fluido, en constante movimiento y transformacion a traves del ciclo hidrologico y que no conoce de fronteras.Ademas, presenta particularidades en relacion con los acuiferos, sobre todo, debido a la existencia de una formacion geologica contenedora de las aguas subterraneas. Por otro, la cooperacion sobre los recursos hidricos compartidos es consustancial a la propia historia de su regulacion y cuenta con una multiplicidad de manifestaciones a nivel interestatal, regional y universal, predominando sobre las muestras de conflicto.No obstante, la dimension global de los recursos hidricos y de los problemas a los que tienen que hacer frente pone de manifiesto las limitaciones de los enfoques puramente interestatales en su ordenacion y han provocado, incluso, el surgimiento de tendencias internacionalizadoras sobre los mismos. Tendencias que, paradojicamente, conviven con intentos de reforzamiento de los derechos soberanos de los Estados sobre los recursos hidricos situados en su territorio.

With the Regulation for a Common European Sales Law (CESL) already appearing on the horizon, it is time to consider the practical impact the instrument will have.What are the specific challenges from the point of view of politics, society, the judiciary, and academia? For instance, does a European sales pose a threat to Member States'' codifications of civil law as symbols of national sovereignty? What are the potential benefits of a further sales regime, in addition to national law and the CISG? How can national courts keep track of it? Do the contracting parties really have a choice, as the "blue button"-concept suggests? How can a further sales regime be integrated into the academic curriculum?The book "COMMON EUROPEAN SALES LAW MEETS REALITY" tries to answer these important questions. It is addressed to legal practitioners, teachers, researchers and students alike.

This book presents a complete and coherent view of the subject of Common European Sales Law from a range of European perspectives.The book offers a comparison of the CESL with the CISG, as well as pre-existing instruments, including the Draft Common Frame of Reference (DCFR) and the Principles of European Contract Law (PECL). It analyses the process of enactment of CESL and its scope of application, covering areas such as the sale of goods, the supplying (licensing) of digital content, the supply of trade-related services, and consumer protection.It examines the design of the CESL bifurcating businesses into large and small-to-medium sized enterprises, and the providing of rules covering digital content and the supply of trade-related services. Lastly, it studies the field of application of the CESL combined with the already existing EU consumer protection laws, as well as nation-specific laws.

In recent years, EU consumer law has been subject to spectacular decisions by the European Court of Justice, with important consequences for the private law of Member States. Currently, it is under scrutiny by the EC Commission, which has just published a proposal for the revision of important aspects of the EU consumer law acquis. The three authors have taken a broad horizontal approach at the European acquis, thereby reflecting on the history, the achievements and also the shortcomings of EC law. EU consumer law is the core of European civil law. In recent years, in particular between the first edition of 2009 and this second edition, it has been subject to spectacular decisions by the Court of Justice of the European Union, with significant consequences for Member States law. This revised and thoroughly updated new edition follows and analyses this process in such important areas as unfair commercial practices, unfair terms, cross-border consumer protection, and product liability. There has been legislation in the area of consumer rights in distance and off-premise contracts, and very recently consumer ADR and ODR. Other projects are still in the pipeline, e.g. mortgage credit; another is subject to heated controversy, namely the proposed optional Common European Sales Law with an important part on consumer law. Even more importantly, the very concept of consumer and consumer protection has been subject to intense debate. Does EU law limit itself to the informed consumer standard, or should the weaker or even the vulnerable consumer standard be given more attention?

Another brick in the wall of Europeanisation of private law.The new volume of the "Principles of European Law" Series on Proprietary Security in Movables deals with an area of law that is of primary practical importance. Credit the "oil" of a modern economy is usually granted only against security. This is true for consumer credits and even more so for credits to business.Each rule is accompanied by the respective Official Comments which explain the meaning of the text. Moreover, National Notes accompanying each rule provide information on the legal situation in as many member states as possible. Thus a truly European-wide survey and short information on the present legal situation of security rights in movables for 25 member states is offered from Malta to Sweden and from Portugal to Romania covering also the recently enacted new Civil codes in Belgium and the Czech Republic, Hungary and Romania. Emphasized are, of course, the major three Central European countries of England, France and Germany.
