International Business Transactions: Contracting Across Borders (American Casebook Series)

This special break-out edition is adapted from the authors' widely used International Business Transactions: A Problem-Oriented Coursebook , 11th. The purpose of this volume is to facilitate a focused study of the contractual issues arising out of international sales transactions. After a brief introduction to the conduct of business in the world community, the book uses hypothetical problems to present some of the most typical and important contract law issues arising out of international sales transactions and letters of credit in conjunction with related readings and materials. The primary focus is on lawyers, public and private, as problem solvers.

The below Power Point presentations contain visual representations of a variety of international business transactions covered in the master International Business Transactions coursebook and in IBT: Contracting Across Borders. Through the use of illustrations, charts, and movement, the presentations show how the parties are situated as well as how the transactions typically unfold. The Power Points cover a wide variety of subjects, including the basic IBT sales transaction, the “battle of the forms,” commercial terms and bills of lading, documentary sales transactions, letters of credit, and international project financing.
