Overview
This book focuses on Chinese cases on the CISG decided by Chinese courts of all levels, focusing on those decided from 2013 to 2016. During this period, the number of cases grew fast compared to 2010 to 2012 covered in volume 3. The growth in the total number reflects that parties might become more familiar with the CISG and therefore decided not to opt out of it; in addition, the case collection and report systems in China at that time were developing very fast, rendering many cases easily accessible. This book provides a comprehensive and detailed analysis of selected cases. The analysis of those cases will be on a case-by-case basis. For each case, an English summary of the judgment will be provided. In the comment, the People’s Courts’ approach to the interpretation and application of the CISG will be discussed. Comments of the individual case will be written either by scholars, or judges or lawyers from international and comparative perspectives to discuss the successes and pitfalls of the interpretation and application of the CISG in China. These selected cases reflect how People’s Court of all levels started to deal with various issues arising from the CISG and will help understand whether and how the People’s Courts change their approaches to the interpretation and application of the CISG in the future.
