Summary
Two contributions on enrichment by transfer and restitution for wrongs form the central part of this work. Both focus, in particular, on German and English law as two main exponents of the civil law and common law jurisdictions in Europe. Two other contributions deal with the structure of liability for unjustified enrichment in the Dutch Civil Code, in Scotland and South Africa, two mixed legal systems at the intersection of civil law and common law. Finally, the relevant proposals advanced by the draftsmen of the (third) Restatement of the Law of Restitution in the United States and of the Study Group on a European Civil Code in Europe are critically examined.
