- W804924171 abstract "I. INTRODUCTION The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG or Convention)1 came into existence in 1980 and established the benchmark for the unification of commercial law in the post-war era.2 It is generally recognized as the first sales law treaty to be accepted worldwide.3 The United States ratified the treaty on December 11, 1986.[4] The CISG went into effect on January 1, 1988, among 11 nations.5 Fifty-seven nations, including most of the major trading states, have ratified the Convention.6 V. Suzanne Cook notes, In this time of unprecedented globalization of trade, the [CISG] responds to the need for uniform sales law with international application and acceptance. When law is at its best, it serves and mirrors the values of society and resolves conflicts in manner that is consistent with such values and expectations. In the case of CISG, with application in [more than] fifty Contracting States spanning five continents and diverse legal systems and traditions, that is formidable task.7 As business interests in the United States continue to globalize, the importance of familiarity with provisions contained in the CISG will be of greater importance to domestic businesses.8 The ability of domestic businesses to engage in international commercial activity via electronic commerce (e-commerce) may also compound problems associated with international commercial disputes.9 Where the CISG is applicable,10 domestic businesses must confront the issue of whether the application of the CISG will result in unexpected or unanticipated liability.11 Even if the CISG is inapplicable (i.e., the CISG does not apply to particular contract, or the parties exclude application of the Convention),12 determining which law to apply in the absence of choice of law provision is often complex problem.13 Where choice of law provision has been included, more potential problems arise, including that of bias on the part of court applying its own national law.14 Notwithstanding these various problems occurring in international commercial activity, the CISG provides what its drafters intended it to provide-uniform law a bit more accessible and predictable than what preceded it.15 One of the Convention's more intriguing aspects is its partial amalgamation of common law and civil law principles into one body of law. The incorporation of conflicting principles could have rendered the Convention unworkable, quandary clearly contemplated by its drafters.16 Camilla Baasch Andersen observed, [U]niformity does not follow automatically from proclamation of uniform rules. Uniformity is difficult goal to achieve, as uniform words do not always ensure uniform results, especially where Convention is in effect throughout countries with completely differing social, economic, and cultural backgrounds, and perhaps most significantly, different legal systems.17 Professor John Honnold commented that partial reason for the failure of the 1964 Sales Convention was the rejection by common law countries of the use of untranslatable civil law concepts. Comparative law is not typically strong focal point of discussion among American scholars.19 The endeavor of uniformity requires an avoidance of interpreting international text through the lenses of domestic law.20 Just as dangers-and corresponding antidotes21-exist in applying uniform international law, such body of law also offers opportunities for insight into application and potential progress of existing domestic laws. A study of the CISG offers such opportunity for study of the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC or Code). While the UCC clearly is not code in civil law vocabulary,22 several works have indicated that some of the UCC's provisions were derived partially from foreign influence, particularly from German sources.23 The relative success of the CISG, coupled with globalization and other influences, has led number of commentators to suggest inclusion of some foreign provisions found in the CISG into the UCC through revision. …" @default.
