Contract II: General Provisions, Delivery of Goods, Package Travel and Payment Services (Principles of the Existing EC Contract Law (Acquis Principles))

The Acquis Group — also known as the European Research Group on Existing EC Private Law — pursues the objective of presenting, in a restated form known as the Acquis Principles (ACQP), the large and sometimes incoherent patchwork of existing EC private law. These Principles reflect the current state of EC law in a structure which allows for the identification of commonalities, contradictions, and gaps in the Acquis. The Acquis Principles include: general rules formulated on the basis of existing EC law; an accompanying commentary, outlining the foundations in the Acquis; and definitions of core legal terms and a glossary on terminology. This present volume is the second of a series. The book combines a revision of the parts of the ACQP published in the first volume — Contract I — with many new rules on remedies for non-performance, as well as certain specific situations or contracts, such as delivery of goods, package travel, and payment services.
