<p style="text-align:justify" class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ansi-language:EN-US">The </span><span style="font-variant:small-caps">Unidroit</span> Principles of International Commercial Contracts provide an excellent and practice proven tool for cross-border contracts:

• <p style="text-align:justify" class="MsoNormal">They constitute a neutral and pragmatic business oriented contractual regime for cross-border contracts

• <p style="text-align:justify" class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ansi-language:EN-US">They contain </span><span style="mso-ansi-language:EN-US">multiple solutions to typical contractual questions</span><span style="mso-ansi-language:EN-US"> regarding the life of a contract, often by way of a compromise between civil and common law</span>

• <p style="text-align:justify" class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ansi-language:EN-US">They have been </span><span style="mso-ansi-language:EN-US">referenced in hundreds of decisions of arbitral tribunals</span><span style="mso-ansi-language:EN-US"> or national state courts</span>

• <p style="text-align:justify" class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ansi-language:EN-US">They have been endorsed</span><span style="mso-ansi-language:EN-US"> inter alia</span><span style="mso-ansi-language:EN-US"> by the </span><span style="mso-ansi-language:EN-US">United Nations Commission on International Trade Law</span><span style="mso-ansi-language:EN-US"> (last in 2021) and the </span><span style="mso-ansi-language:EN-US">Union Internationale des</span><span style="mso-ansi-language:EN-US"> </span><span style="mso-ansi-language:EN-US">Avocats</span><span style="mso-ansi-language:EN-US"> (2020) bringing together through its bar association and individual members approximately two million lawyers in more than 110 countries.</span>

Thirty years after their first publication, it is arguably malpractice to ignore them.

In this fully revised and enlarged 2nd edition, the commentary continues to analyse the Unidroit Principles article by article from a practical perspective, while always discussing alternative courses of action, where they apply. The commentary includes proposals for choice of the Unidroit Principles’ clauses and practical guidance for their use as template, or to supplement the CISG or national law. In addition to arbitral and state court decisions and recent literature, the 2nd edition includes an in-depth analysis of extensive legislative material.
