Agreed Sums Payable upon Breach of an Obligation rethinking penalty and liquidated damages clauses
This book undertakes a comparative analysis of the ways in which legal systems in all regions of the world deal with agreed sums payable upon breach of an obligation which is unique in its breadth. It shows divergences and convergences and indicates trends as to the future development of the law. The book also deals with the treatment of agreed sums under the 1980 United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG); to date it offers the first comprehensive solution to this issue based on comparative analysis. For practitioners as well as researchers this book is a valuable source of information and offers suggestions for solutions to current and future issues.
