CISG Part II in Nordic Context

CISG Part II in Nordic Context

Abstract

In 2015, as the Nordic countries celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Nordic Contract Act (NCA), there is also good reason to celebrate the fact that - due to recent developments - the original field of NCA application has been narrowed in one important respect. In particular, the contract formation rules in NCA Chapter I – which for nearly 100 years applied by default to all contracts – no longer apply to contracts for the international sale of goods. As regards this latter significant
contract category, Chapter I of the NCA has (except for inter-Nordic sales)
been pre-empted, i.e. replaced, by Part II of the 1980 United Nations Convention
on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG).
