Verbraucher sehen sich häufig Beschränkungen beim Zugang zu und bei der Nutzung von online angebotenen Inhalten ausgesetzt, die in Endbenutzer-Lizenzvereinbarungen durchgesetzt werden. Diese Beschränkungen können mit den durch das EU-Verbraucherrecht geschützten Verbraucherinteressen kollidieren. Dieses Buch bewertet die ungeklärte Beziehung zwischen dem EU-Urheberrecht und dem Verbraucherrecht, indem es die geltenden Rechtsvorschriften für die Bereitstellung digitaler Inhalte, einschließlich der neuen Richtlinie über digitale Inhalte und digitale Dienste und der Richtlinie über das Urheberrecht im digitalen Binnenmarkt, sowie die einschlägige Rechtsprechung des EuGH zur Beurteilung von Grundrechtskonflikten im Zusammenhang mit urheberrechtlichen Nutzungsbeschränkungen sorgfältig berücksichtigt. Dieses Buch enthält einen Vorschlag für einen integrativen Ansatz, der darauf abzielt, die Interessen von Urheberrechtsinhabern und Verbrauchern beim Zugang zu digitalen Inhalten und deren Nutzung miteinander in Einklang zu bringen.

On 9 December 2015, the European Commission submitted a proposal for a directive for contracts for online and other distance sales of goods, and a proposal for a directive on digital content. This paper discusses the scope of the proposals, conformity and remedies, and matters regarding the supply of digital content and the modification or termination of long-term contracts for the supply of digital content. Special attention will be given to the question whether the introduction of an additional scheme for sales contracts is workable for legal practice.

Making a key contribution to the contemporary debate about methods in European legal research, this comprehensive book looks behind different methodologies to explore the institutional, disciplinary, and political conflicts that shape questions of ‘method’ or ‘approach’ in European legal scholarship. Offering a new perspective on the underlying politics of method, it identifies four core dimensions of methodological struggle in legal research – the politics of questions, the politics of answers, the politics of legal audiences, and the politics of the concept of law.

This book explores commercial contract law in scholarship and legal practice, suggests new research agendas and provides a forum for debate of typical issues that might benefit from further attention by scholarship and legislatures. The authors from over ten different jurisdictions take an international and comparative approach. Not confined to EU law it re-opens the debate internationally and seeks to reclaim the wider meaning of European law as rooted in geography and cultural legal heritage. There is a need to focus on commercial contracts in more detail in research and legislation. The transactional approach, the role of recent law reform, including the new French Civil Code, cross-border dealings, substantive contract law in public international law and ICSID arbitration as well as current contractual practices like OEM, CSR, contractual co-operation, sustainability and intra-corporate arbitration contribute to a wider regulatory outlook for commercial transactions.

In October 2011, the European Commission introduced its Proposal for a Regulation on a Common European Sales Law (CESL) which covers inter alia international business sales – a subject already regulated by the Convention of International Sale of Goods (CISG) which was ratified by 78 member states. How does this new Proposal fit the existing uniform sales law? How have other regions of the world managed the coexistence of global and regional sales law unification? What can Europe learn from the U.S. experience concerning the CISG and the Uniform Commercial Code? What can we learn from the African OHADA which made CISG more or less the internal law of 17 African states, what from Australia where CISG and common law exist alongside? All these questions are intensely discussed in this highly recommendable book written by renowned authors like Larry DiMatteo, Harry Flechtner, Franco Ferrari, Robert Koch, Ulrich Magnus and Bruno Zeller.
