Overview

In the fast paced world of global business, more than half of all business transactions are international; each fraught with its own set of difficulties. What laws will govern the transaction and which court will have jurisdiction in the event of a dispute are just some of the issues that must be considered. A knowledge of the legal framework governing international business has thus become widely recognized as a sine qua non for the business executive of the twenty-first century. While law students have the luxury of examining international business law from a number of compartmentalized perspectives in specialized modules, business students often find this vast topic compressed into only one module. There is therefore a pressing need for a textbook that deals concisely with the key international law areas in a business context. Most, if not all the books currently available, are suitable only for law students; they either provide in-depth coverage of only one area of international business, or contain too much legal jargon for a business student to understand. This text addresses all these shortcomings and more. Clearly written and illustrated with examples from a range of international situations, this text is a realistic and practical one-stop source; providing the reader with all the building blocks necessary to understand the legal framework of international business.
