Item type:Publication, COVID-19 and related public and private measures as an impediment to perform contracts governed by the CISGhe 1980 UN Convention on the International Sale of Goods ("CISG") contains a provision that governs the consequences of certain events that obstruct the agreed performance of the contract, with no specific reference to domestic law theories such as acts of God, force majeure, or hardship. Pertinently, Article 79 of the CISG relieves a party from paying damages only if the breach of contract was due to an unforeseeable impediment beyond its control.1 This paper addresses the application ofArticle 79 CISG to govern situations oflegal, economic, and factual impediments resulting from COVID- 19 or the public and private measures undertaken to control its spread in society. It also provides some guidelines to determine the existence of COVID-19 related impediments under the purview of Article 79 CISG. It sets out examples of COVID-19 measures implemented by governments and businesses and the common contractual breaches resulting from such measures as well as their legal consequences. The objective of this paper is to promote uniformity in the CISG application and the observance of good faith in international trade pursuant to Article 7 ClSG.8 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Unconscious Bias in Arbitration: Case Law and the Path to FairnessThis article examines the impact of unconscious bias in arbitration and, in particular, in arbitrators’ challenges. Through the analysis of recent case law – including the Swiss Sun Yang Case (2020), the ICC Court Monologue Challenge (2023), the English Expert Case (2024) and the French Obituary Case (2023) – it highlights how unconscious bias can shape decision-making, procedural conduct and perceptions of fairness in arbitration. Arbitrators often deny partiality, yet their conduct – such as dismissiveness, unequal favour, or culturally charged remarks – can create reasonable doubts about lack of impartiality and independence, regardless of intent or awareness. While not all instances of unconscious bias warrant disqualification as an arbitrator, this article argues that unconscious bias can be properly addressed through current standards for independence and impartiality in key instruments such as the IBA Guidelines on conflict of interests in international arbitration. Finally, it advocates for bias-mitigation training and diversity to preserve arbitration’s legitimacy.Scopus© Citations 2 18 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Software technology in CISG contractsSoftware technology has changed the way businesses operate and the items traded globally. These advances demand a fast and adequate evolution of the law. This paper supports the view that the CISG is equipped with the rules needed to address recent changes in software technology; it demonstrates how the general legal principles, upon which the CISG is based, may serve to achieve a proper interpretation and supplementation of this uniform sales law. The author submits, for instance, that a dynamic notion of goods, which includes software, can be revealed by considering the parties’ main obligations under the Convention. In addition, he advocates for a modern understanding of CISG terms in order to apply the rules on contract formation to new realities. Finally, he highlights some performance issues that may arise in the sale of software, including specific methods of examination, and of giving notice of any lack of conformity.1Scopus© Citations 6 10 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Elementos, umbral y quantum de los daños punitivos en el derecho mexicanoDurante la última década, la jurisprudencia de la Suprema Corte de Justicia dela Nación ha modificado de forma profunda los contenidos y alcances del derecho de daños en México. Derivado de estas decisiones, ha habido una redefinición de la reparación del daño y un renovado interés por el tema. El libro que tiene ante sí tiene el propósito de responder a nuevos interrogantes a partir de textos de un grupo diverso de autores, nacionales y extranjeros, reunidos por el Centro de Estudios Constitucionales, que invitan a entablar una conversación profunda sobre diversos aspectos del derecho de daños. Las autoras y autores de esta obra abordan, desde una perspectiva de derecho comparado, el resurgimiento del derecho de daños en el país por la vía judicial; los desafíos de la cuantificación de la indemnización; las implicaciones de la constitucionalización del derecho de daños; la idoneidad de la incorporación de la figura de daños punitivos en sistemas de tradición civilista; la función expresiva de la reparación del daño; las posibles excepciones al nexo causal en el derecho de daños y la vinculación de la reparación del daño con las acciones colectivas en materia ambiental.20 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Rethinking Arbitrator Immunity: The Role of Party-Arbitrator AgreementsInternational arbitration balances private ordering with public authority, demanding both arbitrator independence and credible accountability. Across leading jurisdictions, such as France, Brazil, England, and the United States, rules on arbitrator liability are fragmented: most recognize qualified or quasi-judicial immunity, but diverge on legal characterization, thresholds for fault, and available remedies. This article diagnoses two systemic gaps: (1) unilateral institutional waivers cannot calibrate duties to the lex arbitri or mandatory law, and (2) parties rarely consent expressly to liability standards. It proposes a contractual solution: party-arbitrator agreements (PAAs) concluded at the outset of proceedings that (a) characterize diligence as a bestefforts duty, (b) adopt the most-protective immunity permitted by the seat’s law, (c) confine redress to procedural harm (restitution of arbitrator fees and institutional costs), and (d) anchor forum and governing law in the courts and law of the seat. A model PAA and implementation protocol are offered to operationalize this framework while preserving voluntariness and judicial oversight. The authors envision that this could result in greater predictability and fewer satellite suits.1 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
