Abstract

This article strongly supports the drafting and adoption of a uniform European contract code. The article discusses the ways in which the current legal diversity hampers international trade. This will take many years to implement, so in the interim, the author suggests that existing European Communities (EC) legislation should be reviewed, improved and clarified to remedy inconsistencies in European contract law. The author also argues that international private law in Europe should be further harmonised and European jurisdiction expanded.
