The Article is part of the first European publication which offered a detailed critical commentary of the Feasibility Study on a Common European Sales Law published in 2011. It specifically addressed the rules on conclusion of the contract (Chapter 3), focusing on the most debated issues within the Expert Group entrusted with the drafting of the Feasibility Study, i.e. the meaning of "intent" and the relationship between the rules on formation and those on interpretation of the contract. The point was made that though a few changes might have improved the draft text, in particular regarding the provisions applying to b2b contracts, Chapter 3 was to be considered a reasonable result, since for the most part it reflected well settled, internationally accepted uniform rules with the addition of balanced acquis consumer protection provisions.

Abstract
The Article is part of the first European publication which offered a detailed critical commentary of the Feasibility Study on a Common European Sales Law published in 2011. It specifically addressed the rules on conclusion of the contract (Chapter 3), focusing on the most debated issues within the Expert Group entrusted with the drafting of the Feasibility Study, i.e. the meaning of "intent" and the relationship between the rules on formation and those on interpretation of the contract. The point was made that though a few changes might have improved the draft text, in particular regarding the provisions applying to b2b contracts, Chapter 3 was to be considered a reasonable result, since for the most part it reflected well settled, internationally accepted uniform rules with the addition of balanced acquis consumer protection provisions.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
