Features: Introduction: Since 1997, the German Technical Cooperation Company (GTz) has been working with the Ministry of Commerce of the People's Republic of China (MOFCOM) to promote the development of sound and predictable legal systems primarily related to commercial transactions, foreign trade, and investment. This book includes materials that have been successfully used in several Chinese and German contract law courses. After systematically introducing the relevant laws of China and Germany, it presents 34 cases along with comparative solutions based on Chinese and German contract law. These solutions are primarily constructed according to the claimant method, which plays a dominant role in German legal analysis. This book serves as a valuable guide not only for legal practitioners and officials from China and Germany but also for scholars and students interested in the comparative law of Chinese and German contract law. The other volumes in this series will use a similar case method to conduct comparative analyses of other important private law fields such as guarantees, intellectual property, and tort law.
