Russian Commercial Law

After almost 11 years since the collapse of socialism, a fairly developed body of commercial law has emerged in Russia. The Civil Code, which sets out the basic rules of private law and accommodates company, property, contract, and tort law as well as rules on private international law, has been enacted. The Joint-Stock Company Law, the Law on Limited Liability Companies, and Insolvency Law are in place. A comprehensive Tax Code is being enacted in stages. This volume is the first comprehensive and in-depth study of Russian commercial law in English. The work lays emphasis on the actual operation of the legal system rather than the law in books by referring to a number of commercial and ordinary court decisions as well as commentaries by leading Russian lawyers. The work ranges across all the principal areas of corporate and commercial law, encompassing law and practice in contract, property, banking, natural resources and taxation as well as dispute settlement.Oda, Hiroshi is the author of 'Russian Commercial Law', published 2002 under ISBN 9789041118462 and ISBN 9041118462.
