Christina Hultmark Ramberg, Göteborg University, Sweden

A GJ Advances article.

Abstract

This paper will point to some of the problems in implementing the E-Commerce Directive in national contract law, with a particular focus on Articles 9-11 related to formation of contracts by electronic means. Throughout the paper I will make comparisons with the US Uniform Electronic Transaction Act (UETA), The Principles of European Contract Law (PECL) and the UNCITRAL Model Law on Electronic Commerce.
