Haftungsbeschränkung und Mindesthaftung

Alexander Bruns presents a new concept for the admissibility of limitations of liability, a concept which is valid both in the E.C. and in the U.S.A. His basic theory, which he explains and summarizes by using significant legal areas as examples, is that liability limitations in contract law or corporate law are enforceable if the requisite minimum liability is maintained. He deals not only with the law in Germany, but also takes a look at the law in the U.S.A. and in the main European states as well as European Community law.
