Normative of the international sale of goods

Abstract

This research paper addresses five technical aspects of the International Sale of Goods from critical analysis of its regulatory framework, namely the United Nations Convention of 1980, held in Vienna. Thus, the study presents a global and structural vision of the Convention, highlighting issues of particular relevance, such as its scope; the formation of the contract; the obligations of the parties; the contractual breach and its effects; highlighting its influence in domestic law, as though not uniformity and internationality of character, the Convention could be considered as national law. Legal history and economic importance are also addressed, highlighting alternative use of other instruments to regulate this legal business, also between with the Lex Mercatoria as a reference to the application and interpretation of international and national standards. In addition, a detailed study of the standard and conflictual autonomy in the context of the said Convention, and the developments that this fundamental principle of private international law has had on the application thereof is included.
