Linfluence De La Reforme Du Droit Des Obligations Sur Le Droit Des Affaires

L'ordonnance n°2016-131 du 10 février 2016 a profondément modernisé le droit français des contrats, du régime général et de la preuve des obligations, qui était resté inchangé depuis 1804. Ce nouveau droit des contrats a l'ambition de renforcer la place du droit français dans la vie des affaires afin d'attirer les investisseurs étrangers et les contractants souhaitant rattacher leurs actes juridiques au droit français. Cet ouvrage fait directement écho à cette double ambition économique et internationale de la réforme. Résolument tourné vers la vie des affaires, sa première originalité est d'en analyser les incidences de façon sectorielle, au travers de chacune des branches du droit des affaires. Le nouveau droit des contrats est ainsi appréhendé sous le prisme de toutes les matières du droit des affaires : droit commercial général, droit des sociétés, droit des entreprises en difficulté, propriétés intellectuelles, droit de la concurrence, droit de la distribution, droit du travail droit public des affaires, droit des transports, droit du sport, droit rural des affaires, contentieux économiques (arbitrage et modes amiables de résolutions des différends). Rédigé en français et en anglais, l'ouvrage vise en outre à faire connaître le nouveau droit français des obligations aux juristes d'affaires anglophones, contribuant ainsi au rayonnement de cette importante réforme au-delà de nos frontières. Réalisé sous l'égide du Centre de Droit Economique de l'Université d'Aix-Marseille (EA n°4224), cet ouvrage est le fruit d'un important travail collectif réunissant une vingtaine d'enseignants-chercheurs sous la direction de Cyril Bloch, Adeline Cerati-Gauthier et Vincent Perruchot-Triboulet.

The 2005 Avant-projet de réforme du droit des obligations et de la prescription, also dubbed the Avant-projet Catala, suggests the most far-reaching reform of the French Civil code since it came into force in 1804. It reviews central aspects of contract law, the law of delict and the law of unjustified enrichment. There is currently a very lively debate in France as to the merits or the demerits of both the particular draft provisions and the general idea of recodification as such. This volume is the first publication to introduce the reform proposals to an English speaking audience. It contains the official English translation of the text, and distinguished private lawyers from both England and France analyse and assess particularly interesting aspects of the substantive draft provisions in a comparative perspective. Topics covered include negotiation and renegotiation of contracts, la cause, the enforcement of contractual obligations, termination of contract and its consequences, the effects of contracts on third parties, the definition of la faute, the quantification of damages, and the law of prescription. The volume also contains an overall assessment of the draft provisions by one of the most senior French judges who chaired the Working Party on the Avant-projet, established by the French Supreme Court, the Cour de cassation. The book is indispensable for comparative private lawyers and lawyers with a particular interest in French law. It is also of use to all private lawyers (both academics and practitioners) looking for information on recent international and European trends in contract and tort.

Over the last 30 years, the evolution of acquis communautaire in consumer law and harmonising soft law proposals have utterly transformed the landscape of European contract law. The initial enthusiasm and approval for the EU programme has waned and, post Brexit, it currently faces increasing criticism over its effectiveness. In this collection, leading academics assess the project and ask if such judgements are fair, and suggest how harmonisation in the field might be better achieved. This book looks at the uniform rules in the context of: the internal market; national legislators and courts; bridging the gap between common and civil law; and finally their influence on non-member states. Critical and rigorous, it provides a timely and unflinching critique of one of the most important fields of harmonisation in the European Union.
