Global Order Beyond Law: How Information and Communication Technologies Facilitate Relational Contracting in International Trade: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Global Order Beyond Law: How Information and Communication Technologies Facilitate Relational Contracting in International Trade" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Well-functioning contract law is a crucial prerequisite for economic development. However, even though international trade has increased enormously in recent decades, we still know little about the contract enforcement mechanisms that exist in todays globalised markets. The aim of this work is to shed light on the governance of complex cross-border contracts by developing a comprehensive theoretical framework for understanding the relevance of both formal and informal institutions. This framework is then applied to an empirical study of cross-border software development contracts. Combining a unique data set of 41 qualitative expert interviews with statistical data and surveys, the author demonstrates that state contract laws show fundamental signs of dysfunction across borders. Companies engaged in globalised exchange therefore rarely use this mechanism. Even the European Unions supranational enforcement order is, in practice, insignificant. Against all expectations, international commercial arbitration also turns out to be limited in its ability to provide a workable legal infrastructure for global commerce. With global trade lacking a reliable formal legal order, companies have reacted by creating their own informal governance structures. This book explains how complex exchange in global markets has emerged in the absence of a global legal order.

GLOBAL ORDER BEYOND LAW

Well-functioning contract law is a crucial prerequisite for economic development. However, even though international trade has increased enormously in recent decades, we still know little about the contract enforcement mechanisms that exist in todays globalised markets. The aim of this work is to shed light on the governance of complex cross-border contracts by developing a comprehensive theoretical framework for understanding the relevance of both formal and informal institutions. This framework is then applied to an empirical study of cross-border software development contracts. Combining a unique data set of 41 qualitative expert interviews with statistical data and surveys, the author demonstrates that state contract laws show fundamental signs of dysfunction across borders. Companies engaged in globalised exchange therefore rarely use this mechanism. Even the European Unions supranational enforcement order is, in practice, insignificant. Against all expectations, international commercial arbitration also turns out to be limited in its ability to provide a workable legal infrastructure for global commerce. With global trade lacking a reliable formal legal order, companies have reacted by creating their own informal governance structures. This book explains how complex exchange in global markets has emerged in the absence of a global legal order.

International Studies in the Theory of Private Law: Volume 11

International Studies in the Theory of Private Law

This series of books edited by a distinguished international team of legal scholars aims to investigate the normative and theoretical foundations of the law governing relations between citizens. The context for such investigations of private law systems is set by important modern tendencies in systems of governance. The advent of the regulatory state marks the withdrawal of the state from direct control and management of social and economic activity, and the adoption instead of procedural regulation and co-regulatory strategies that promote the use of private law techniques of ordering and self-regulation in social and economic interactions between citizens. The tendency known as globalisation and the corresponding increases in cross-border trade produce the responses of transnational regulation of commerce and private governance regimes, and these new systems of governance challenge the hegemony of traditional national private law systems. Furthermore, these tendencies towards transnational governance regimes compel an interaction between different national legal traditions, with their differences in culture and philosophy as well as their differences based upon variations in market systems, which provokes questions not only about competing policy frameworks but also about the nature and adequacy of different kinds of legal reasoning.

The series encompasses a diverse range of theoretical approaches in the examination of these issues including approaches using socio-legal methods, economics, critical theory, systems theory, regulation theory, and moral and political theory. With the aim of stimulating an international discussion of these issues, volumes will be published in Germany, France, and the United Kingdom in one of the three languages.

If I choose German law, I get my right; but if I appear with this ruling in India and want to enforce it, the Indians might just laugh at me.

(CEO of a German software company)

Atfb is a German company selling accounting software. In May 2013, Michael Dittmar, a key sales account manager at ATFB, reported to the board that his client companies complained about the safety of the accounting software. It turned out that outsiders could get online access to confidential internal company data. The board immediately reacted to this problem and consigned Frederic Wirth, head of the quality department at ATFB, to replace major parts of the software in order to resolve this safety risk. In 2011, ATFB had decided to downsize the development department in order to focus primarily on sales efforts. Therefore, from that point forward, if there was ever a demand for new software development, ATFB would need to outsource this work to specialised software companies. Consequently, in 2013, Frederic Wirth, charged with solving the safety problems, began looking for a business partner that could perform the reprogramming. Frederic Wirth first screened the domestic market, but, as he compared the national prices for software development with prices in Eastern Europe and Asia, he immediately recognised a great business opportunity. Working together with a partner in these regions could reduce the cost for software development up to ten times. Thus, Frederic Wirth screened the global market and convinced the board to approach MBD, an Indian company located in Bangalore.
