Description

"In Towards a new CISG, Leandro Tripodi discusses the aging and need for renovation of the 1980 Vienna Sales Convention. Changes in global political circumstances and the economy of international sales of goods have rendered the 1980 CISG a dated legal instrument. Its recognized flexibility is not sufficient to cope with changes emerging from the introduction of new technologies, which affect all kinds of goods. In light of the challenges posed by 21st-century world commerce, Dr. Tripodi proposes the adoption of a Convention on the International Sale of Goods and Services (CISGIS). The idea of a new convention is based on the following facts: 1) goods and services are no longer as distinguishable as in 1980, as goods have become servitized; 2) sales of goods and sales (i.e., the provision) of services are not as easy to apportion as the CISG presupposes and can hardly continue to be treated as separate entities by the sources of international trade law"--Unedited summary from book cover.
