Legal Aspects of an E-Commerce Transaction: International Conference in the Hague, 26 and 27 October 2004

by Andrea Schulz (Editor)

The contributions contained in these conference proceedings illustrate how the existing and future regulatory framework operates for online business transactions. Legal Aspects of an E-Commerce Transaction examines various national and international laws and treaties as well as European Community law. The book looks at self-regulatory codes of conduct elaborated by business organizations relating to advertising, spam, competition, and the use of intellectual property rights, to the conclusion of online contracts and their performance. Additionally, post-contractual issues, dispute resolution, and taxation are discussed, and their interaction is examined. Rules on electronic payment, electronic invoicing, and the taxation of electronic business transactions are equally addressed.
