Thus a thorough comparative examination of the principles of interpretation of contracts in major legal systems and uniform laws, such as this indispensable book provides, becomes an essential resource.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe book examines the principles of contract interpretation found in seven legal systems--French, Italian, German, Swiss, Turkish, English, and U.S.--as well as in all applicable uniform laws, drawing on the case law and scholarship aligned with each. In addition to texts intended to unify or harmonize the law at a global level, the European Union's uniform law texts, which constitute an important reference model for regional codifications, are also presented. The terminology peculiar to each system has been preserved in its language.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSpecific issues and topics raised include the following: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\"subjective\" versus \"objective\" interpretation;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ehistorical reasons for basic differences in the approaches of individual legal systems;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ethe principle of freedom of contract;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003egood faith and fair dealing;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003erules that restrict the interpretation of contracts; and\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ecommercial usages.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe author's systematic presentation culminates in a proposal of a practical and universal method of interpretation of contracts.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGiven the importance of the interpretation of contracts in cross-border transactions, every practitioner of international arbitration will welcome this incomparable book's easy access to the essential literature and case law in the legal systems and uniform laws they are most likely to encounter.
