Region of the Caucasus and Central Asia: between Divergence and Harmonization
in Almaty, Kazakhstan 23-24 May 2014.
Target
group: legal researchers and practitioners, governmental officials, who
deal with international and national regulation of international trade (private
law aspects) in the region of the Caucasus and Central Asia.
Conference
language: English and Russian with simultaneous translation.
Topics: The
Conference will deal on a comparative basis with the sales law in the region of
the Caucasus and Central Asia, with particular accent on regulation of
international sales contracts. Sales law of all countries besides Georgia base
on the CIS Model Civil Code. In the recent 20 years the sales laws of the
countries of the region were amended many times. The reforms were strongly
influenced by international legal frameworks and foreign, in particular German,
legislation. But these reforms were not harmonized between each other. Today we
have quite different legal framework for the sales law. As the result the
countries of the region approaching step-by-step to the international trends,
are drifting more and more from each other. The Conference is targeting to shed
light to this interesting development and compare it to the developments in the
EU, in particular to establishment of the Common European Sales law. The
Conference focuses on several aspects: the structure of the Sales Law, its
development and the role of international organizations and foreign technical
aid organizations, not individually negotiated terms, conflict of laws rules of
the countries of the region applicable to the international sales contracts, transport
contracts and contracts on sales of hydrocarbons, which are very important for
the countries of the region.
