The book is a collection of unpublished essays on the various fields of private law as they evolve in a growingly integrated Europe. The texts are designed to offer a comprehensive overview of each chosen area of the law and to display as well as provoke debate, both from a substantive and a comparative point of view. This volume - which follows and complements a previous one, published in 2009 - contains contributions on corporation law, trusts, law of sales, (fair and unfair) competition law, liability for services, environmental liability, personal injuries law, products liability, limitation periods. It also includes a contribution on private law in the European constitutional order, and one on the economic analysis of the harmonization of European private law.
