520			_aSummary:- "Foundations of International Commercial Law is a fresh analysis of both the contextual features of International Commercial Law and a range of different international commercial law instruments, covering the various elements which comprise International Commercial Law, the academic debates about the lex mercatoria and harmonisation, and a discussion of selected conventions and other instruments. International Commercial Law is concerned with commercial transactions which have an international dimension, i.e., contracts between parties from multiple jurisdictions. As an area of study, it is characterised by the interaction of a wide range of national and international legal sources which all shape the overall context within which international commercial contracts are made and performed. This book focuses on the international legal sources, in particular. It first explores all the different elements which together comprise the overall context of international commercial transactions, before examining the process of making International Commercial Law. Specific instruments of International Commercial Law discussed in the book included the conventions on the international sale of goods, agency, financial leasing, factoring, receivables financing and secured interests in mobile equipment, together with the UNIDROIT Principles of International Commercial Contracts and documentary credits. There are separate chapters on private international law and international commercial arbitration, and a final chapter exploring the existing and potential impact of the digital economy on International Commercial Law. This book is for readers who are new to the subject, whether undergraduate or postgraduate students, legal scholars, practitioners or policy-makers. It offers a detailed overview of the main themes and key aspects of International Commercial Law. Christian Twigg-Flesner is Professor of International Commercial Law at the University of Warwick, UK"--
