This text, with its accompanying documentary Handbook for Global Business Law, substantially revises and updates the very popular first edition of Global Business Law (by David Frisch and Raj Bhala). In doing so, this second edition provides students of international business law (especially in law schools but also in practice) with a clear "story line" that addresses key questions facing international business lawyers as they advise clients on the three main forms of international business -- commercial sales, licensing & franchising, and foreign direct investment. In particular, the new edition provides helpful chapter overviews and Study Questions to highlight key elements to be drawn from the material. These new features -- together with a streamlining of case reports and secondary materials, a modest restructuring of the topics presented, additional illustrations and sample forms, and an updating from the earlier edition -- combine to make this text a clean and comprehensive introduction to the principles and practice of global business law.

International business transactions are heavily influenced by culture,practice and rule. The pursuit of business relationships within nation-states can be subject to differences in the generation of norms and the processing of disputes, but these conflicts are magnified many times over in cross-border transactions where nation-state control and support is weak or absent. This book seeks different explanations of the ways in which business people and their legal advisers try to minimise the effect of these magnified difficulties. At the outset the editors suggest four sources through which the international business community might be considered to have supplemented nation-state conflict prevention and dispute resolution institutions-an international legal order; the development of a private normative order based on common business practices (denominated the lex mercatoria); through the efforts and work product of internationalised law firms, and by means of extensive, thick personal relationships often referred to by their Chinese term guanxi. Since most explanations are dominated by North American and European legal scholarship and practice, a second concern of this book is to open up the discussion to competing explanatory frameworks. Specifically, it develops the notion that global legal convergence may not be the immediate, inevitable result of increased global economic interaction. Rather, less formal mechanisms for achieving normative understanding and predictability in business dealings may also flourish.

The Comparative Law Yearbook of International Business, published under the auspices of the Center for International Legal Studies, in this 41st volume spans an arc from nuanced discussion of the notion of ‘creativity’ under various copyright regimes and product designations over corporate organization, acquisition and criminal conduct, regulation of payment services and tax evasion to dealing with disruptive behaviour in international arbitration. The authors, practitioners and academics from Japan, Poland, Romania, Greece, Turkey, Iran, Spain and England bring a medley of perspectives addressing developments and pressing legal issues for businesses that are engaged in international commerce and investment, such as the difficulty of prosecuting corporate crimes, disincentives for tax offenders to cooperate with authorities, and new paradigms for banking. What’s in this book: Among the broad spectrum of aspects, the book covers such issues and topics as the following: – reorganization of the concept of creativity by functions; – designation of products, business and entrepreneurs; – dividend distribution in public companies; – tax evasion, disproportionate punishment and lack of remedies; and – transposition of the European Payment Services Directive 2. How this will help you: As a scrutiny of the updated developments in the legal fields, this Yearbook helps readers gain insight into national and regional perspectives on the interpretation of laws. The presentation of the reports aids in understanding the impact of such legal developments in practice. Thus, this book serves as a source of knowledge for lawyers and academics to comprehend the changing legal rules and regulations and to confidently apply them in solving problems.

This book provides comprehensive and, above all, business focused guidance on the fundamentals of business law and how they should be integrated into ethical and effective business decisions. It concentrates on legal principles and thereby is able to articulate the impact of global business law and its international applications providing a comprehensive overview of the legal and ethical principles which both facilitate and regulate corporate business. This is an ambitious undertaking, yet arguably no more ambitious than the projects undertaken by global business leaders making business decisions around the world. The author combines the expertise of a long-term blue chip law background with the insights of an experienced business educator. Law and Ethics in Global Business is both a comprehensive course book for MBA study and an invaluable business reference source for any executive involved in global business.

Harmonisation of law, a term that refers to an effort to bring two different legal traditions in harmony with one another, has developed a rather negative connotation over time when mentioned in the context of Shari’ah and common law. Harmonisation began to be looked at as an attempt by one legal system to impose its values on the other. A major reason for that is the lack of understanding of the scope to which these two legal traditions converge. One of the principal findings of this book is that Shari’ah and common law have many more commonalities than differences. As a result, the need for harmonisation between the two might have been exaggerated. The similarities do not need to be harmonised. Rather, they need to be acknowledged and appreciated. If the differences between Shari’ah and common law, which undoubtedly exist as evidenced in this book, are approached from the position of appreciation for commonalities, the ambiance to reconcile the differences would be more conducive to the harmonisation process which would, in that case, be reflective of compromise. This book is intended to help readers better understand Shari’ah and common law and aid harmonization efforts when needed.

The dislocations of the worldwide economic crisis, the necessity of a system of global justice to address crimes against humanity, and the notorious 'democratic deficit' of international institutions highlight the need for an innovative and truly global legal system, one that permits humanity to re-order itself according to acknowledged global needs and evolving consciousness. A new global law will constitute, by itself, a genuine legal order and will not be limited to a handful of moral principles that attempt to guide the conduct of the world's peoples. If the law of nations served the hegemonic interests of Ancient Rome, and international law served those of the European nation-state, then a new global law will contribute to the common good of all humanity and, ideally, to the development of durable world peace. This volume offers a historical-juridical foundation for the development of this new global law.
