Vertragshaftung und responsabilité contractuelle

Contractual liability is one of the most important parts of contract law and has undergone some recent reforms in the national law systems. Contractual liability is also the focus of European contract law. In this study, Konstanze Brieskorn analyzes the main issues from a comparative point of view, dealing with French, German and European contract law. In the first chapter, the author compares the different conditions necessary for claiming contractual damages within French, German and European contract law. The second chapter deals with the right to compensation following the violation of contractual obligations.
