If you negotiate or litigate cross-border deals, this new guide will help you to navigate the challenges and opportunities of language as it relates to law.
|
Drawing on examples from English-, French-, Italian-, Portuguese-, and Spanish-speaking jurisdictions, this book takes a comparative look at cross-border secured lending and commercial dispute resolution. It illustrates how governments might best promote languages and economic activity, and how parties to transactions can effectively structure their business to maximize their control of the choice of language in which they deal.
The book integrates investigations of national legal systems, the European Union, the Organization for the Harmonization of Business Law in Africa, and the Community of Portuguese Language Countries, to illustrate the new institutitional dynamics through which the languages of transnational commerce and finance are being defined.
