Jan Kolář - International sales contract Abstract Topic of this master's thesis is international sales contract, more specifically remedies for the breach of international sales contract. As a substantive law by which remedies for the breach of international sales contract are judged is the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. Reason for choosing the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods as a substantive law for this thesis is that this convention represents one of the most successful and most widely used international legal norm used to govern international trade in today's world. This is mainly because of the Convention's well balanced and impartial approach and also the fact that the Convention has been ratified in 83 states which significantly contribute to the overall volume of an international trade. This thesis mostly uses analytical and descriptive legal research methods. This is given by the nature of its subject. However, the thesis does not only describe provisions of the Convention but aspires to point its reader to most salient and problematic features of the Convention. The thesis is divided into six chapter, introduction and conclusion. For better clarity chapters are further structured into two more levels. First...

Due to the current time requirements the side arrangements are an important part of the contractual relations. During the negotiation a substantial attention of the contracting parties is needed, because the legal form of the side agreements is very short and ambiguous, with possibility of extensive deviation from the letter of law. After the legal research we can say that this theme is a very diverse, which is difficult to grasp by the legislature in its whole entirety, because the principle of a liberty of a contract always relativizes any conclusion provided by the theory and practice. The issue of the side arrangements is very scattered in the legal system of the Czech Republic and this thesis had for one's object to analyse the most important side agreements which are negotiated with the purchase or other agreement. In terms of the target of this work the legal form of side arrangements under the Civil Code and Commercial Code was analysed. The thesis also deals with the limitation of side arrangements and opportunity to negotiate other arrangements which aren't directly regulated by the Civil Code or Commercial Code. By reason that the work focuses on the side arrangements regulated by the Civil Code, it was necessary to take this fact into account. That's why each of side arrangement, which...

Due to important differences and risks in international trade, firms pay due attention to the legal background of their contractual relationships. To do this, they use a variety of contracts, the most important of which is the contract of sale. In this paper I will analyse two requisites of a contract of sale: the price and the terms of payment. The first part of the paper deals with the examination of the regulation of these requisites in the law of five selected countries and in the international law (the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods). In the second part I will compare two concrete contracts of sale and assess their quality. The last part is then devoted to the definition of the main problems of the examined regulation and to the search of their possible solutions.

Consumer Contracts Focusing on Sales Contract - Comparison of Old and New Legislation Consumer contracts as contracts concluded with consumer who is the weaker party make integral part of our everyday life. Although we usually consider consumer protection an area of contractual law, it is a category with an overlap into commercial, european, criminal and administrative law. Consumer law which is strongly affected by EU legislation stands on the border between private and public law. Practical aspects of consumer law, however, do not in any way exclude its main purpose - seeking justice, i.e. balancing equality on one side and freedom on the other side. This branch of law is even more topical nowadays as we are exposed to advertising anywhere. Moreover we are experiencing financial crisis at the moment when most of people are suffering from lack of money which sharply contrasts with insufficient financial knowledge of Czech population. Legislation changes slowly and does not correspond to the development of society. Reality is then quite different to the way we know it from textbooks. The New Civil Code that brings many changes not only in consumer law was adopted in 2012. It provoked numberless discussions both between lawyers and public. The importance of the code was overshadowed by media...
